A new festival series, Rock the Country, is in the making to celebrate small-town life across seven southeastern U.S. towns, featuring country musicians Jason Aldean and Kid Rock as co-headliners. Other notable names in the lineup include Miranda Lambert, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Travis Tritt, and Hank Williams JR., who are set to appear at different stops on the tour.

The festival kicks off at the Lamar-Dixon Expo Center in Gonzales, Louisiana on April 5 and April 6. It will then travel to various other towns such as Ashland, KY, Rome, GA, and Ocala, FL before wrapping up in Anderson, SC on July 26 and July 27 at the Anderson Sports and Entertainment Center.

The festival series will be produced by Shane Quick of LiveCo as well as Nathan Baugh, President of 46 Entertainment, and will serve as a platform to address pressuring issues and confronting rural America.

Quick emphasizes that the tour is not political, yet the inclusion of Kid Rock – who is a vocal supporter of former President Trump and outspoken about his hard stance on COVID-related restrictions infuses a hint of political energy into the mix. Additionally, Aldean’s presence takes on a new significance against the backdrop of his recent song, “Try That in a Small Town,” which sparked controversy earlier this year.
