Zac Brown Band Announces “Roar With the Lions Tour”

by Jim Casey | @TheJimCasey | January 9, 2020

We ain’t lion.

After Zac Brown Band caps The Owl Tour in April, the troupe will hit the road this summer for the Roar With the Lions Tour.

The new trek will kick off on May 24 in Gilford, N.H., with additional shows in Toronto, New York, Atlanta, Chicago, Denver and more. Gregory Alan Isakov will serve as the opener for most dates.

“Our summer tour is inspired by the folklore surrounding the figure of the lion,” says Zac. “I am a Leo, and all of the guys in the band are lions. They exemplify strength, courage, intelligence, and loyalty, and work in tandem to defend their territory and one another. The crowd is our pride—rooted in togetherness and fiercely loyal. They always show up for each other, no matter what, just like our fans always show up for us. We can’t wait to hear you roar with us!”

Tickets will go on sale to general public on Jan. 17 at 10 a.m. local time.
