Jameson Rodgers To Jump On The ‘Whiskey Train’ This Fall
Jameson Rodgers is hitting the road on his new “Whiskey Train Tour,” kicking off Aug. 31 in Starkville, Mississippi. Lauren Watkins, Greylan James and John Morgan will open for Rodgers on select dates.
“This one is called the ‘Whiskey Train Tour’ because the tone of that song matches the tone of the shows. I’ve got some of my favorite artists/friends opening up these shows with Lauren, Greylan and John. It’s going to be a blast and I can’t wait to see everyone there,” says Rodgers.
Tickets for the “Whiskey Train Tour” go on sale this Friday, (Aug. 4) with pre-sales beginning Wednesday, Aug. 2.
Rodgers is releasing a brand new song, “Whiskey Train,” in conjunction with the new tour on Sept. 1. Produced by David Garcia and co-written by Rodgers, Smith Ahnquist, Will Bundy and Lynn Hutton, the rowdy new track captures that Friday-after-five feeling.
“The idea for ‘Whiskey Train’ came at about 1 a.m. on a writing retreat. Lynn Hutton asked Smith Ahnquist if he wanted another beer, and Smith said, ‘Nah man I’m on that whiskey train,’” Rodgers explained. “Will Bundy and I looked at each other and we all immediately started writing. I’m excited for the world to get on the whiskey train September 1.”
In addition to the newly-announced headline dates, Rodgers will join Jordan Davis, Old Dominion and Darius Rucker on select dates throughout the fall.
