Nashville,
TN – June 19, 2013 – On a short break from the Miranda Lambert and
Dierks Bentley: Locked & Reloaded Tour dates, award-winning
singer/songwriter Dierks Bentley is headlining some of the summer’s
biggest festivals with a hit-packed show that has the capacity crowds on
their feet from the first notes of “Am I the Only One” at the top
through the final patriotic chants of the crowd with the emotional
closing song “Home.” With eight years of tireless touring under his
belt, Bentley has hit a new stride that’s catching attention from coast
to coast.
Bentley
kicked off summer with the release of “Bourbon In Kentucky,” the lead
single off his upcoming seventh studio album RISER, due out later this
fall, and he will pick back up in July on the Miranda Lambert and Dierks
Bentley: Locked & Reloaded Tour through October.
Since
moving to Nashville, Bentley has forged his own artistic path in an
industry built predominantly on formula. He has mixed elements of modern
country, classic country, bluegrass and rock, maintaining an
unmistakable identity while constantly reinventing his sound. His album
HOME debuted at No. 1 and spawned three consecutive chart-topping hits,
marking 10 career No. 1 songs for Bentley as a singer and songwriter.
His five previous studio albums have sold more than five million copies,
garnered 11 GRAMMY nominations and earned him an invitation to join the
Grand Ole Opry.
