Hitting the road… or maybe playing on the run is more like it?
This morning, Riley Green announced his extensive headlining 2025 Damn Country Music Tour, which is set to kick off in March in Abbotsford, BC, Canada and run through August ending in Nampa, Idaho.
His favorite duet partner Ella Langley will open all dates, and Drake White, Vincent Mason, Lauren Watkins, Jake Worthington, Preston Cooper, Erik Dylan, Wyatt McCubbin, Mike Ryan and Channing Wilson rotate opening different shows throughout the tour.
And it wasn’t just your typical tour announcement… Riley and his openers shared a great video that’s a nod to the iconic 1977 Smokey and the Bandit film, with Riley making a great Bandit, obviously, (Burt Reynolds) and Ella as Carrie (Sally Field).
They all have great CB radio names, and it’s honestly the best tour announcement I think I’ve ever seen… general ticket on-sale starts this Friday, September 27th:
Riley is gearing up to release his third studio album Don’t Mind If I Do on October 18th, so fans will get to hear tons of new music at next year’s concerts, as well as fan-favorites like “Georgia Time” and “There Was This Girl.”
Riley says he’s looking forward to this tour in particular because he’s bringing long some of his favorite artists and songwriters too:
“I learned to play guitar to my granddaddy’s favorite country songs from back in the day and the new album is a throwback to the era when I first became a fan. For this tour I was able to find some of my favorite artists and songwriters to join us, and singing with Ella every night will be a lot of fun.”
I’m gonna have “East Bound and Down” stuck in’ my head all day now…
