Luke Bryan Announces First Leg of 2018 “What Makes You Country Tour”

Luke Bryan announced he will be hitting the road in 2018 with a new What Makes You Country Tour.

The first leg of the tour kicks off on Feb. 16 in Springfield, Mo., with six announced dates at this time, including stops in Louisville and Atlantic City.

Kip Moore and The Cadillac Three will serve as openers during the first leg.

Tickets go on sale on Nov. 3, with pre-sale tickets beginning on Nov. 1 through Citi’s Private Pass program. More dates will be announced soon.

Luke will release his sixth studio album, What Makes You Country, on Dec. 8. Produced by Jeff Stevens and Jody Stevens, What Makes You Country features 15 songs, seven of which were co-written by Luke, including the title track. The album’s lead single, “Light It Up,” is currently No. 9 on Billboard’s Country Airplay chart after just nine weeks.

“My favorite part of making a new album is getting to collaborate with the songwriting community in this town,” said Luke. “It is important to me to continue to push myself to grow on all levels and I feel like we did that on this project. Making and performing music never gets old and I can honestly say I am having the time of my life. I will be forever grateful to every fan who sings along each night.”
