LUKE BRYAN HEADS BACK TO THE FARM THIS FALL FOR FARM TOUR 2022

Nashville – April 29, 2022 – Five-time Entertainer of the Year Luke Bryan will headline his thirteenth FARM TOUR this September during a two-week break from his “Raised Up Right Tour” launching in June. The Georgia native will set up stages in the fields of local farmers across six states September 15-24; two of the farms have never-been-played before. Riley Green, Jameson Rodgers, the Peach Pickers, and DJ Rock will be the special guests.

Tickets for FARM TOUR are on sale May 5 at 10AM local time at LukeBryan.com. Presale tickets for Luke’s Fan Club (the Nut House) and fan App are available beginning May 2 at LukeBryan.com/allaccesspass.

“I look forward to these shows every year mainly because of the meaning behind them and why it was important to me to start the Farm Tour thirteen years ago,” said Luke. “It has allowed communities who don’t normally get a concert in their areas to experience a fun night in their backyard all while lifting up the American farmer. Small town and farming pretty much sum up my childhood. It is my way of life and I know it is a way of life for so many. It is truly the highlight of my year for me and my whole team.”

Continuing a partnership that began in 2015, Bayer is once again joining the tour as presenting sponsor and teaming up with Luke Bryan to help celebrate America’s farmers and fight hunger through its #HerestotheFarmer campaign. The campaign supports Bayer’s vision of Health for All, Hunger for None and asks fans across the United States to share the hashtag #HerestotheFarmer on their social media channels to show their gratitude to America’s farmers. From June 1 through October 31, 2022, for every share, Bayer will provide one meal± to a person in need through Feeding America® with the goal of helping to provide 1 million meals. Since the partnership’s inception, nearly 5 million meals have been donated and more than $180,000 has gone to Feeding America member food banks and local farmers at each of the tour cities.

Citi is the official card of FARM TOUR. Citi cardmembers will have access to presale tickets beginning May 2 at 10AM local time until May 5 at 10AM local time through the Citi Entertainment® program. For complete presale details visit www.citientertainment.com.

Over 100,000 fans have attended the tour each year since its inception in 2009. Luke will continue giving back to the farmers by awarding college scholarships to students from farming families who are attending the local college or university near the tour stops. To date, more than 60 scholarships have been granted.

About Riley Green

Rolling Stone hailed his musical perspective as “Drinks-in-the-air Nineties country at an Alabama vs. Auburn tailgate,” and that is just the type of energy fans have come to expect from Riley Green. Raised on the sounds of traditional Country, Bluegrass and Southern Gospel music, the Jacksonville, AL native learned the spirit of songwriting and performing at a young age while spending time with his grandfather, Bufford Green, who ran the Golden Saw Music Hall. That stage laid a foundation for the songs Riley would craft in the years to come and values learned from another generation. He fittingly shares co-writing credits posthumously alongside his two grandfathers on the PLATINUM certified “I Wish Grandpas Never Died,” which and People praised “might take him to a whole new stratosphere. Evident on his debut album DIFFERENT ‘ROUND HERE (BMLG Records), featuring the PLATINUM-certified hit No. 1 “There Was This Girl,” MusicRow noted his “great country vocal, honest presentation and true-to-life lyrics.” Riley’s BEHIND THE BAR collection with fan-favorite “If It Wasn’t For Trucks” and WE OUT HERE: LIVE followed as the 2020 ACM Awards New Male Artist of the Year has “brought country back to its roots: the blue collar sounds for the working man, by the working man” (Whiskey Riff). Named a CMT “Listen Up Artist,” Riley was also voted as one of the CRS 2020 New Faces and earned MusicRow’s Breakout Artist of the Year. In addition to his own headline dates, Riley joins Luke Bryan and Brooks & Dunn in the US this Summer before heading to Canada with Luke Combs in the Fall. He has previously hit the road with Jason Aldean, Brad Paisley, Jon Pardi and Dierks Bentley. For upcoming tour dates and more, visit RileyGreenMusic.com.

About Jameson Rodgers

Raised on the country rebels of old, country music’s newest powerhouse Jameson Rodgers currently finds himself basking in the success of two consecutive No. 1 hits, with his Platinum-certified debut “Some Girls” and follow-up smash “Cold Beer Calling My Name,” featuring label mate Luke Combs, making back-to-back runs up the charts. And now, with the release of his debut album Bet You’re from a Small Town and his new single “Missing One” hitting airwaves across the nation, the soft-spoken yet edgy country traditionalist just might find himself landing in superstar territory. An already established singer/songwriter on multi-Platinum-selling hits for Florida Georgia Line (Top 10 single “Talk You Out of It”) and Chris Lane (No. 1 smash “I Don’t Know About You”), Bet You’re From a Small Town is a gritty country music masterpiece effortlessly travels both sonically and lyrically between love songs (“Porch with a View”) and breakup songs (“Girl with a Broken Heart,”) party songs (“Cold Beer Calling my Name”) and songs that tell the story of the deepest of losses (“Good Dogs.”) “All these songs make me feel something,” he admits. “That’s the whole goal of music, isn’t it?” JamesonRodgers.com | Facebook | Twitter | Instagram | YouTube
