MAT KEARNEY
April 16, 2022 at 8pm CDT
Unexpected moments often yield the most beautiful results. That’s how Mat Kearney arrived at his sixth album January Flower, a collection of honest, stripped-down songs that brings the Nashville-based, Oregon-born musician back to his singer-songwriter roots. January Flower recalls Kearney’s early work on his gold-selling album Nothing Left To Lose, veering in a different direction from his 2018 album CrazyTalk. His vast touring history, which includes treks with John Mayer, Sheryl Crow and NEEDTOBREATHE, is evident in the vibrancy of the songs, as is his enduring success as a recording artist. Kearney has released five albums in the Billboard Top 200, with three in the Top 20, and has seen his songs placed on shows like Grey’s Anatomy, 30 Rock and NCIS. Overall, he has over 2.5B global streams. Tickets start at $29.50.
WALKER HAYES
April 29, 2022 at 8pm CDT
Monument Records recording artist Walker Hayes is a singer/songwriter whose recent EP Country Stuff includes the RIAA certified Platinum smash hit “Fancy Like,” which has topped every country streaming and sales chart since its release and has spent 8 weeks and counting at the number one spot on Billboard’s Hot Country Songs. Called “the song of the summer” by The TODAY Show, the track is now in the top 10 on Billboard’s Hot 100 Songs. Propelled by the TikTok dance Hayes made to the song with his teenage daughter, “Fancy Like” has been used over half a million times on the app, with that original, homemade video, racking up over 30 million views and being used in a national Applebee’s campaign. Hayes’ debut album boom., co-produced by multi-Grammy Award winning producer and songwriter Shane McAnally, led Billboard to praise his “personal, soul-bearing storylines; rolling rhymes; and Macklemore-like cadence,” and The Washington Post to write that “Hayes has broken into the mainstream by sounding different.” Tickets start at $25.
