Ella Langley will join all dates a rotation of additional artists throughout the tour
Riley Green announces an extensive headlining run, Damn Country Music Tour, set to kick off on March 27th in Abbotsford, BC, Canada. The announcement was made even more memorable with a nod to the classic “Smokey and the Bandit” with a video featuring the country star and all of his opening acts, watch the promo video. Additional dates are to be announced in the coming months.
Produced by Live Nation, pre-sale tickets and VIP packages are available now with general on-sale this Friday, September 27th.
“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,” Green shares.
Released in support of the tour, Green is revving up his engine in a hilarious parody of the iconic 1977 film Smokey and the Bandit. In a playful reenactment, he channels the legendary Bandit (Burt Reynolds) with Ella Langley as runaway bride Carrie (Sally Field) as they evade the cops in a sleek Pontiac Firebird Trans Am. Green grabs the CB radio to call out to his opening acts, inviting them to join him on the road. The scene is perfectly set to the iconic tune “East Bound and Down,” performed by the late Jerry Reed, adding a nostalgic flair to this lighthearted tour announcement.
The upcoming tour celebrates Riley Green’s forthcoming third studio album, Don’t Mind If I Do, which will be out October 18th. Delivering more of the signature sound that fans can’t get enough of and continuing down the path he set forth with Ain’t My Last Rodeo, Green leans even further into pulling inspiration from his small-town life in rural Alabama to deliver an honest, relatable and at times humorous 18-track project. Currently on an incredible hot streak, Green’s well-earned confidence in his work shines through with five of the tracks being solely written including standouts “Jesus Saves,” “Worst Way” and the title track—which finds Green reuniting with his “You Look Like You Love Me” duet partner Ella Langley, with whom he shares the hit track that has quickly seen more than 162 million global streams and is continually climbing toward the top of several viral charts, including top 15 on the Mediabase country chart. Dann Huff produced the project along with executive producers Scott Borchetta and Jimmy Harnen.
