Jelly Roll has announced his new 44-city “Backroad Baptism Tour,” kicking off this summer on July 28 at Bank Plus Amphitheater in Southaven, Mississippi.
Ashley McBryde, Elle King, Chase Rice, Caitlynne Curtis, Merkules, Struggle Jennings, Three 6 Mafia, Yelawolf and Josh Adam Meyers will open select dates during the journey.
The extensive arena tour will make stops across the U.S. in Milwaukee, Bakersfield, Houston, Lexington, Salt Lake City and more before wrapping in Tampa on Oct. 14. Tickets go on sale starting this Friday, Feb. 24 at 10 a.m. local time on Ticketmaster.com.
“The Backroad Baptism Tour” comes on the heels of a momentous year for the emerging, multi-genre artist. Jelly Roll’s 2020 single “Save Me” set the stage for his new season of life and took him to new heights, earning more than 155 million views on YouTube and Platinum certification from the RIAA. He scored his first No. 1 on country radio with his debut single “Son Of A Sinner,” which dominated Billboard’s Emerging Artist chart for a record-breaking 25 consecutive weeks – ultimately breaking the record of most weeks spent at No. 1.
Jelly Roll recently released “She” as well as his current radio hit, “Need A Favor” from his forthcoming album. Having independently amassed over four billion career streams to date, he continues to sell out venues across the country. He notably played to more than 16,000 fans at his sold-out hometown show at Bridgestone Arena. Along with his new tour, he’ll also open on several dates as direct support for Eric Church.
