On Monday, Oct. 27, country superstars Kenny Chesney and Jason Aldean announced that they would be combining their massive 2015 stadium tours for 10 dates next summer, and today they have revealed that another country star will be joining them. Brantley Gilbert will be performing with Chesney and Aldean from May to August, as well as five additional dates with Chesney.
“When you co-headline a tour with Jason Aldean, you’ve gotta get someone who can hold their own to go in front,” Chesney told The Boot. “When I looked around, for those stadium shows that Brantley’s part of, he’s the man for the job. He knows how to reach the crowd, how to make them rock — and he’s not afraid to push the rest of us.”
Gilbert took to his Twitter account earlier today to express his excitement for the joint tour. You can check out that tweet here:
