BMI recently welcomed Chris Young to its songwriting family. Young is in the midst of a hot streak, scoring five consecutive No. 1 hits from his two most recent albums The Man I Want to Be and Neon, and selling over 1 million downloads of his smash “Tomorrow.”
Young is also set for his first headlining concert at Nashville’s revered Ryman Auditorium. The Nov. 15 date includes special guests Thomas Rhett and Joanna Smith, and is the first stop on Young’s Liquid Neon Tour.
While Young has played the Ryman as part of the Grand Ole Opry, this headlining debut is especially meaningful for the Murfreesboro, Tenn. native. “The first time I set foot on the Ryman stage was an unbelievable experience,” says Young. “I am so grateful for the support of my hometown crowd all of these years and saying I can’t wait for this show is an obvious understatement.”
Tickets for the Ryman concert go on sale on Fri., Sept. 14 at 10 AM CT and are available via the Ryman box office and Ticketmaster outlets or by calling 800-745-3000.
