Brooks & Dunn announces free Nashville concert

The show will be held at Skydeck on Broadway

Brooks & Dunn is celebrating the upcoming Reboot II with a Whiskey Jam Takeover event set for this week in Nashville. The free concert will take place on Thursday, October 17th at Skydeck at Fifth + Broadway. The event is 21 and older and starts at 6 pm.

The duo teased the announcement over the weekend with a fun bleep-filled video that left fans hanging with “Stay tuned…”

It’s unclear who may show up unannounced at the show. Reboot II features contributions from Lainey Wilson, Morgan Wallen, Marcus King Band, Megan Moroney, Warren Zeiders, Jelly Roll, Riley Green, The Cadillac Three, Halestorm, Mitchell Tenpenny, The Earls of Leicester, Jake Worthington, Hailey Whitters, Christone “Kingfish” Ingram, Hardy, Ernest, A Thousand Horses, and Corey Kent.

The project, due on November 15th via Sony Music Nashville, rejects the idea of putting these songs in a historical vault. Instead, it celebrates Brooks & Dunn’s lasting influence and versatility, showcasing the multi-faceted ways their music continues to resonate with today’s most celebrated artists. With styles ranging from progressive country and classic bluegrass to heavy metal, orchestral pop and beyond, the very fabric of songs most country fans know by heart was transformed – and whether it was ‘90s grunge, ‘70s style studio rock or swampy soul, the duo encouraged each artist to throw out the playbook. Never afraid to break with tradition, Brooks & Dunn have themselves followed that advice since their original “Merle Haggard meets The Rolling Stones” blend, but never this boldly. The project’s 18 tracks include reinterpreted hits such as “Neon Moon,” “Boot Scootin’ Boogie,” “Play Something Country” and “Believe,” resulting in a dynamic and eclectic collection that spans genres and generations.

It’s the sequel to their acclaimed 2019 album Reboot and follows the same format featuring some of today’s most engaging artists given maximum creative freedom.
