Chugg Entertainment and Rob Potts Entertainment Edge are thrilled to announce that American country music superstar Alan Jackson will be making his first ever visit to Australia in 2011. Jackson’s Aussie fans have been clamouring for him to tour for two decades!
The tour begins on Friday 4 March when Jackson takes the stage at Melbourne’s Rod Laver Arena, before heading north to Sydney for a performance at Acer Arena on Monday 7 March. Jackson then takes on Queensland in not one, but two performances at the Brisbane Entertainment Centre on Thursday 10 March and Friday 11 March.
Alan Jackson is one of the most successful and respected songwriter/performers in music, inspiring audiences across several generations with his modern approach to classic country. A 16-time CMA and 16-time ACM Award winner and a GRAMMY winning songwriter/performer, Jackson’s career to date has included sales of more than 50 million albums and 34 #1 hit singles, including ‘Drive’, ‘Chattahoochee’ and ‘Where Were You (When The World Stopped Turning)’.
“I’ve always heard that it’s just beautiful down there,” says Jackson. “Everyone I know that’s been has loved it. Said the people down there are really nice and welcome people from the US so generously. I know I’ve got a lot of fans down there and I know they like my kind of music – so I think it’ll be a fun trip!”
As if that wasn’t enough, Jackson is also bringing along special international guest Miranda Lambert, who made history this year when she received 9 CMA nominations, more than any other female artist in CMA history! One of the hottest country stars in the world today, Lambert will also be making her first trip to Oz and promises to deliver a show fans will never forget.
Also joining the tour will be our own Jasmine Rae. The ARIA-nominee has had one of the fastest rising careers of any local artist in recent years. Her debut album ‘Look It Up’ yielded three #1 singles and was described by the King of Australian Country Lee Kernaghan as ‘the hottest new artist to come out of Australia in a long time’. Her second album will be released on March 4 the day the tour commences.
