Chris Young headlined Nashville’s massive “Let Freedom Sing!” Music City July fourth celebration presented by Dr Pepper last week, playing to a crowd of 355,000 fans.
Young celebrated the holiday with a hit-packed set spanning his career, including his latest top 10 title track single from recently released ninth studio album, Young Love & Saturday Nights.
The downtown event also featured one of the country’s largest July fourth fireworks shows, including drone lights, and was televised as part of CNN’s The Fourth In America special. As part of the show, Young brought out special guest Mitchell Tenpenny for their No. 1 hit, “At The End Of A Bar.”
