$20 Pavillon Seats Are Being Made Available on Key Amphitheater Shows
NASHVILLE, TN – As Brantley Gilbert kicks plans for the summer leg of his THE DEVIL DON’T SLEEP TOUR, the working class kid from Jefferson, Georgia wants to bring some of his most hardcore, hard-working fans “into the house” for this summer’s party. So rather than merely making fan friendly seats available on the lawn, the back-to-back Platinum songwriter’s carving out a chunk of seats under the pavilion – and making them available for just twenty dollars.*
“Look I love the lawn and how much fun everybody has up there,” the man who won the American Music Award for Favorite Country Album with JUST AS I AM acknowledges, “but I also know some of my most hardcore fans come for the music. They want to be under the roof, where they can really see and hear the show. I hate that it’s always impossible for the folks in the BG Nation, who’re trying to make ends meet, to get into those seats – so we’re teaming with Live Nation to create a Working Class ticket.”
“I know times can be tight, and no matter what you’ve got going on, if you wanna come hear the show, we’ve got you covered.”
Tickets for these shows are available on a first-come, first-sold basis. Once they’re gone, they’re done. But for those fans who want to really see the action, and truly hear the band, this is a best of both worlds proposition.
With “The Weekend” cresting the Top 10, and the arena portion of THE DEVIL DON’T SLEEP TOUR rocking, this is one more way for the man who has hit #1 with “Country Music Be Country Wide,” “You Don’t Know Her Like I Do,” “Bottoms Up” and “One Hell of an Amen” – plus writing “My Kind of Party” and the CMA Song of the Year nominee “Dirt Road Anthem” – to bring the fans closer to him.
As Entertainment Weekly wrote of Gilbert’s attack, “With swaggering guitars, catchy hooks, and a DGAF attitude, Devil promises to keep the ‘One Hell of an Amen’ singer at the top of the country charts,” whileBillboard opined “Merle Haggard was known as the ‘Poet of the Common Man,’ and while some might have their opinions about comparing any modern-day star to the late country legend, one thing is for sure – Brantley Gilbert knows his audience. With a pair of Platinum albums and nine of his singles being certified Gold or Platinum, Gilbert’s music strikes a chord with people.” American Songwriter raved, “Gilbert never fails to deliver southern inspired anthems that make listeners crave the weekend” and touring industry trade Pollstar raved of opening night, “most notably on a brief instrumental honky tonk interlude that allowed the five musicians backing Gilbert to show off their chops, the music was heavily country. But for much of the rest of the show, it was an amalgam of styles Gilbert grew up listening to, incorporating crunchy guitars, drum machines, even some rapped verses.”
For the man focused on the Rust Belt, Heartland, the South and East Coast, the chance to not just take his hard-hitting show outside, but make it drive even harder is a given. The chance to bring the hardest core fans under the pavilion is something he’s been working on for months – and now he can let people know he’s able to bring everybody inside who wants to come.
