Alabama Announces 50th Anniversary Tour

December 17, 2018/by LB Cantrell

Country Music Hall of Fame group Alabama will celebrate five decades of music next year with a 50th Anniversary Tour. With nearly 30 live concerts already on the books, the first leg of the tour will sweep the United States.

“We never thought playing for tips at The Bowery in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, that 50 years later we would still playing arenas, stadiums and festivals,” said Alabama frontman Randy Owen. “Teddy, Jeff and I are humbled at the amount of fans that are coming out to see us. We are finding out that we are playing to three generations of fans who have followed us and our music from day one. The fans are the ones responsible for our continued success on the road and we love them.”

“Randy, Teddy and I have loved making music, touring and being with our fans night after night,” said Jeff Cook. “It’s truly an experience that has created a bond between us and them that cannot be broken. The 50th Anniversary Tour will be full of surprises and great memories.”

Teddy Gentry added, “The group Alabama has become ‘America’s Country Band,’ we are told. We are proud to have been performing, writing songs and recording for 50 years. Come celebrate the music with us on our 50th Anniversary Tour in 2019. Each show will be a night to remember for us. We’ll be there to thank our loyal legions of fans for supporting three boys from Fort Payne, Alabama through thick and thin.”

The 50th Anniversary Tour kicks off on Jan. 10 at the Fox Theatre in Detroit. Additional dates will be announced soon.
