KING CALAWAY TO OPEN FOR GARTH BROOKS MAY 3 AT U.S. BANK STADIUM IN MINNEAPOLIS

Emerging Nashville-based band KING CALAWAY has been announced as the opening act for country legend Garth Brooks at his U.S. Bank Stadium show in Minneapolis, MN on May 3, 2019, marking the band’s first-ever stadium show performance. Garth was the first to announce the news – watch the video HERE beginning 8:40.

 

“Garth
is a country music icon and a huge inspiration to us. It is an honor to
even be mentioned in the same sentence as him, let alone stand on the
same stage,” King Calaway guitar & vocalist Caleb Miller said on
behalf of the band. “This will be our first ever stadium show and we
absolutely cannot contain our excitement!”

 

The band was also announced this morning as a performer at ACM Songs,Stories & Stars, taking place as part of the 7th Annual ACM Party for a Cause on Friday, April 5 at the Marquee Ballroom, MGM Grand Hotel & Casino leading up to the 54th Academy of Country Music Awards.

 

The
news continues to solidify the six-piece band’s status as an act on the
rise, building on the success of their debut single “World For Two” from their self-titled EP
released in January, via BMG/BBR Music Group. “World For Two” was the
most added song at country radio in its first week and continues to grow
rapidly across streaming platforms. Additionally, King Calaway made
their Grand Ole Opry debut on March 1 and was introduced by esteemed
country artist Brad Paisley. The band has been named one of seven country acts to watch in 2019 by Billboard and a “2019 Artists To Watch” by Amazon music. 

 

ABOUT KING CALAWAY: 

Six unique voices. Six top-notch instrumentalists. Three different
countries. Featuring a half dozen musicians from both sides of the
Atlantic, King Calaway is proof that there’s strength in
numbers. Hailing from across the globe — from the small towns of the
American Midwest to the small coastal country of Gibraltar; from the
Atlantic seaboard to the Central Belt of Scotland — King Calaway brings a
worldly perspective. They’re country stars for a new generation,
singing songs that erase the boundaries between genres and countries.
Comprised of bandmates Caleb Miller, Chris Deaton, Simon Dumas, Jordan Harvey, Chad Michael Jervis, and Austin Luther,
King Calaway isn’t looking to blend into the crowd. They’re not even
looking to fit in. They’re in the business of standing out…and King
Calaway stands tall.
