ICONIC COUNTRY ROCK GROUP, ALABAMA, ANNOUNCES ALL-NEW 2023 ROLL ON 2 NORTH AMERICA TOUR
THE MULTI-PLATINUM BAND WILL HIT THE STAGE IN ATLANTA AT STATE FARM ARENA ON SATURDAY, APRIL 1, 2023 WITH VERY SPECIAL GUEST, THE MARSHALL TUCKER BAND
TICKETS GO ON SALE THURSDAY, DEC. 22, 2022 AT 10 A.M. ON TICKETMASTER.COM
Nashville, TN (Dec. 20, 2022) — Multi-platinum selling country rock group ALABAMA has announced an all new 2023 tour “ROLL ON 2 NORTH AMERICA.” The tour will include a stop in Atlanta, Georgia, at the award-winning State Farm Arena on Saturday, April 1, 2023. The show will feature very special guest, The Marshall Tucker Band. This will mark the second “Roll On” Tour in the band’s 50+ year history since 1984.
Over 50 years ago, cousins Teddy Gentry, Randy Owen and the late Jeff Cook left the cotton farms of Fort Payne, Alabama to spend the summer playing music in a Myrtle Beach, South Carolina bar called The Bowery. It's a classic American tale of rags to riches. From humble beginnings picking cotton in the fields to international stars, ALABAMA went on to sell 80 million albums and change the face and sound of country music.
Quality songs that have become the soundtrack for American life are the foundation for ALABAMA's stellar career. The group introduced rock style guitars, lights, pyrotechnics and sounds to the country audience that has inspired many of today's brightest country stars including Kenny Chesney, Jason Aldean and Luke Bryan. While their music continues to stand the test of time, their numbers and stats are beyond compare.
Five decades since starting the band, ALABAMA has charted 43 #1 singles, including 21 #1 singles in a row, and have won dozens of CMA, GRAMMY®, and ACM Awards. They are members of the Country Music Hall of Fame, the Musicians Hall of Fame and have their own star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. In addition, they are world-class philanthropists who have raised millions of dollars for various charities.
Ticket pre-sale starts on Wednesday, Dec. 21, 2022 (Code: ROLLON). All tickets go on sale to the public on Thursday, Dec. 22, 2022, at 10 a.m. Visit TheAlabamaband.com or Ticketmaster.com for more info.
ABOUT ALABAMA
Over 50 years ago, Jeff Cook, Teddy Gentry and Randy Owen left the cotton farms of Fort Payne, Alabama to spend the summer playing music in a Myrtle Beach, South Carolina bar called The Bowery. It took them six long years of tip jars and word-of-mouth to earn the major label deal they'd been dreaming of. Then, seemingly no time at all to change the face of country music. ALABAMA, country music’s first band, was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2005. The group is known for hit songs including “Mountain Music,” “Roll On,” “Dixieland Delight” and “If You're Gonna Play In Texas (You Gotta Have A Fiddle In The Band).” From humble beginnings picking cotton in the fields to international stars, ALABAMA went on to sell 80 million albums and charted 43 No.1 hits, becoming the most successful band in the history of country music. In November 2022, ALABAMA co-founder Jeff Cook passed following a lengthy battle with Parkinson’s disease. With his prior encouragement and wishes, ALABAMA continues touring on a limited basis, keeping the iconic music they created alive for the current and future generation of fans.
ABOUT THE MARSHALL TUCKER BAND:
The Marshall Tucker Band came together as a young, hungry, and quite driven six-piece outfit in Spartanburg, South Carolina in 1972, having duly baptized themselves with the name of a blind piano tuner after they found it inscribed on a key to their original rehearsal space — and they’ve been in tune with tearing it up on live stages both big and small all across the globe ever since. Plus, the band’s mighty music catalog, consisting of more than 20 studio albums and a score of live releases, has racked up multi-platinum album sales many times over. A typically rich MTB setlist is bubbling over with a healthy dose of hits like the heartfelt singalong “Heard It in a Love Song,” the insistent pleading of “Can’t You See” (the signature tune of MTB’s late co-founding lead guitarist and then-principal songwriter Toy Caldwell), the testifying “Fire on the Mountain,” the wanderlust gallop of “Long Hard Ride,” and the explosive testimony of “Ramblin,’” to name but a few.
