Nashville, TN (Trace Adkins And Gretchen Official Websites) - Country superstars
Gretchen Wilson and
Trace Adkins are set to kick off the second leg of The Redneck Revolution Tour in a co-headlining venture this spring! Both artists have been entertaining packed houses and sell out crowds on their own headlining tours earlier this year. This spring they'll bring their explosive high energy sets together along with special guest
Blaine Larsen for one amazing show!
Gretchen Wilson stormed on the music scene two short years ago with her "Redneck Woman" anthem. She has since garnered awards from the Grammys, Billboard Music Awards, The American Music Awards, the coveted CMA Horizon Award, the prestigious Top Female Vocalist from the ACM and the CMA's Female Vocalist of the Year. Her debut album Here For The Party is closing in on sales of five million units, and All Jacked Up is already certified Platinum.
Trace Adkins is an undeniable giant in country music – both figuratively and physically. His music career first exploded almost a decade ago and he's since racked up a string of hits, become one of the Opry's newest members and has sold millions of records. His current album Songs About Me debuted at No 1 one-year ago on the Country Soundscan Chart and became his second consecutive Platinum-certification this past year. The CD is rapidly approaching the 2 million mark and has produced three hit songs including the monster hit that dominated 2005, "Honky Tonk Badonkadonk". The song's video has just received three CMT Music Award nominations for Video of the Year, Male Video and Hottest Video of the Year.
Newcomer Blaine Larsen rounds out this superstar lineup. His powerful debut single, "How Do You Get That Lonely," was a top 15 hit and has propelled Blaine to one of the best selling new country artists of the year. His current single "I Don't Know What She Said" is currently climbing the country music charts!
