Nashville, TN (August 13, 2013) – This fall GRAMMY-nominated artist Will Hoge
will set out on his first major headlining run – NEVER GIVE IN TOUR
2013. Kicking off on October 11 in Dallas, Texas, the 27-city nationwide
tour will go through December. Supporting Hoge on the majority of the
dates will be veteran rockers Red Wanting Blue and label mate Sunny
Sweeney will team up with him for stops in Brooklyn, Chicago,
Indianapolis and Milwaukee.
Hoge will be touring in support of the release of his ninth studio album titled NEVER GIVE IN on
October 15 via Thirty Tigers. Today (8/13), the critically acclaimed
singer-songwriter gives fans a sneak peek by unveiling the forthcoming
album’s cover.
“I’m so excited about this new album. I
can’t wait to get out on the road and play these new songs for folks,”
shares Will Hoge. “There’s gonna be a lot of different things happening
live on this tour and I’m thrilled for everyone to get to see it. Couple
all these incredible cities with such great support acts as Red Wanting
Blue and Sunny Sweeney, it is going to be one fun tour!“
NEVER GIVE IN is a life motto
for the Nashville native who catapulted into the national spotlight in
2012. Spending the early part of the year supporting Dierks Bentley’s
arena headlining tour, Hoge was introduced to his first dose of
mainstream country. The release of the Eli Young Band Platinum smash
“Even If It Breaks Your Heart,” which he co-wrote with Eric Paslay,
garnered an enormous amount of buzz at Country radio, earning Hoge
nominations for the 2013 GRAMMY Country Song of the Year, 2013 ACM Song of the Year and 2012 CMA Song of the Year.
While raising Hoge’s profile as a hit songwriter, the song also
introduced his music and records to the Country music audience; a decade
removed from major label release on Atlantic Records, CAROUSEL.
Currently, his song “Strong” is featured as the musical backdrop for
General Motor’s 2014 Chevy Silverado nationwide ad campaign.
