The third annual Country Throwdown Tour Fired Up By Kingsford will get underway Friday, May 18 in Gulfport, MS, and a new performer and dates have been added for the popular outdoor summer trek.

Corey Smith will play select dates (May 19, 20, 26, 27, and July 8) of the tour, joining previously announced performers Gary Allan, Josh Thompson, Rodney Atkins, Justin Moore, Eric Paslay, Sunny Sweeney, Florida Georgia Line and Maggie Rose. Atkins is set to play June 1-30 and July 1, while Moore will be on board May 18-27.  In addition to the performances on the tour’s two main stages, the Bluebird Cafe stage will spotlight emerging songwriters Channing Wilson, Rose Falcon, and Carly Pearce for intimate sets throughout the day.

The tour will hit 20 cities nationwide and has recently added stops in Lampe, MO (5/19); Bonner Springs, KS (5/20); Milwaukee, WI (6/28); and Nashville (7/8). Special guests Jonathan Singleton and the Grove, Drake White, and Mama’s Blue Dress will play at the Nashville tour stop.
