As Luke Bryan’s star expands, so does the size of venues he’ll play.
The Leesburg native announced his “Kick The Dust Up” tour on Wednesday in Nashville. The lengthy outing – May through October – includes seven stadium shows.
But for his home state appearance, Bryan has penciled in Aug. 21-22 at Philips Arena with Randy Houser and Dustin Lynch opening.
Ticket information hasn’t been released yet, but a pre-sale through Citi Private Pass has started for select cities.
The reigning CMA Entertainer of the Year also shared the news that his seventh Spring Break album, “Spring Break…Checkin’ Out,” will arrive March 10. This will be the final installment of Bryan’s Spring Break series and will be available in stores and on digital platforms.
Since 2010, Bryan has scored 10 No. 1 hits on the Country Airplay chart. His 2013 album, “Crash My Party,” has sold more than 2 million copies on the strength of hits“That’s My Kind of Night,” “Drink a Beer” and “Play It Again.”
Last summer, Bryan sold out a pair of consecutive shows at Aaron's Amphitheatre at Lakewood .
