Luke Bryan and Jason Aldean are teaming up to play a Sanford Stadium show, “Live Between The Hedges” at the University of Georgia on April 25.
The longtime buddies and Georgia natives joined SEC Nation over the weekend to make the announcement in person from Georgia’s campus ahead of the Georgia vs Alabama game. The lineup for the concert event also includes Zach Top, Georgia native Lauren Alaina, DJ Rock and Dee Jay Silver. Bryan and Aldean first rocked Sanford Stadium in 2013 as part of Aldean’s “Night Train Tour,” which marked the one and only concert event ever to be held in the venue.
“Playing Sanford Stadium in 2013 was one of the biggest highlights of my career,” says Aldean. “I couldn’t be more excited to co-headline it this time with my buddy Luke Bryan. Luke and I have talked for years about wanting to do another show in Athens, and finally the stars have aligned for us to be able to do it. This one’s gonna be something people haven’t seen before…..WE PROMISE YA!”
“Growing up going to Sanford Stadium was always a highlight of the year for me, and I can’t believe I get to go back as a co-headliner with one of my best friends and play this iconic place,” adds Bryan. “Aldean and I have been talking about putting on a unique show together for a few years and to be able to do that in our home turf is incredible. I am so grateful to continue to have these opportunities and to keep being able to have so much fun at this life. This is going to be way up there on the list for me!”
Both Aldean’s and Bryan’s fan club members will have ticket presales beginning today through Oct. 2, with tickets to the public on sale Oct. 3 at LukeBryan.com, JasonAldean.com or GeorgiaDogs.com.
“As we worked on bringing concerts back to Sanford Stadium, it was important that we find a group with Georgia roots,” says J. Reid Parker Director of Athletics Josh Brooks. “We have always had a strong partnership with Jason Aldean and Luke Bryan and appreciate their passion for their home state and this university. Zach Top and Lauren Alaina are the perfect complement to what will be a fun night in Athens.”
