Nashville, Tenn. (January 30, 2017) – FLORIDA GEORGIA LINE
reignited their DIG YOUR ROOTS TOUR on Friday, Saturday and Sunday
night (1/27, 1/28 and 1/29), thrilling Tallahassee, Orlando and Miami,
Florida, fans in a sold-out homecoming weekend for the duo’s Brian
Kelley.
Drawing
40,000 plus people over three nights, Kelley and Georgia native Tyler
Hubbard picked up right where they left off in 2016, which found them
breaking attendance records and playing to over one million fans for the
second year in a row.
Delivering
a high-octane level of performance that is unmatched in the world of
country music, FGL showed exactly why they’ve been called “one of the
hottest country acts alive” by MusicRow Magazine.
An expanded celebration of FGL’s chart-topping third studio album, DIG YOUR ROOTS,
the 2017 DIG YOUR ROOTS TOUR features Dustin Lynch and Chris Lane as
supporting artists, as well as Seth Ennis, Ryan Follese and Morgan
Wallen on select dates. Next weekend the tour will head for the
country’s heartland with shows in Illinois, Missouri and Oklahoma, and
continue on with dates scheduled through May.
The
history-making duo dominated the charts in 2016 with their 2X PLATINUM
#1 smash-hit “H.O.L.Y.” – which sat on top of the Billboard Hot Country
Songs chart for an astonishing 18 weeks. Their hopeful GOLD-certified
anthem, “May We All” (featuring Tim McGraw) marks their 12th No. 1
overall, while their newly released knockout “God, Your Mama, And Me”
(featuring Backstreet Boys) is climbing the charts.
Since
introducing their breakout vibes in 2012, FGL has earned prestigious
honors from the AMA, ACM Awards, CMA Awards, Billboard Music Awards and
CMT. Their previous BMLG Records releases – 2X PLATINUM debut HERE’S TO THE GOOD TIMES and PLATINUM ANYTHING GOES
– have attributed to sales surpassing 26 million tracks and more than
3.5 million albums worldwide. With their massive debut, FGL’s “Cruise”
is the only country single to ever be certified DIAMOND for sales
exceeding 10 million copies and overtook the record for longest #1 on
Billboard’s Hot Country Songs chart.
