New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Zac Brown Band will kick off their sixth headlining US concert tour on Thursday, May 19th at Hartford's XFINITY Theatre. The tour's name is inspired by a lyric from "Tomorrow Never Comes" off their latest album 'JEKYLL + HYDE'. The 26-date tour includes shows at both stadiums and amphitheaters and sees the band returning to
Alpine Valley
Music Theatre, Citi Field and Fenway Park.
Drake White & The Big Fire are direct support for Zac Brown Band.
The "BLACK OUT THE SUN" tour announcement comes on the heels of the three-time GRAMMY-winner's largest North American tour to date. This included two history-making performances - a first ever sold-out, three-night run at Fenway Park, and a concert at Coors Field along with performances at Wrigley Field, Nationals Park, Citi Field, Comerica Park and Citizen's Bank Park.
Released this past April, 'JEKYLL + HYDE' (Southern Ground/John Varvatos Records/Big Machine Label Group/Republic Records) debuted at #1 on Billboard's Top 200 chart, earning the GRAMMY Award-winning band its third consecutive #1, and is officially certified gold by the RIAA.
Zac Brown Band also recently earned a 2016 ACM nomination for "Vocal Group of the Year."
Prior to kicking off their 2016 tour, Zac Brown Band's Southern Ground
Music & Food Festival returns to Charleston, SC for its fifth year on Saturday and Sunday April 16 and 17. Headliners include
