This past weekend, multi-Platinum artist Dierks Bentley concluded his highly successful 2024 GRAVEL & GOLD TOUR, presented by Jersey Mike’s, with a final show in Milwaukee, WI. Since kicking off in June, Bentley performed over 30 shows across the U.S., including a standout night at Red Rocks and an “epic country music celebration” at Nashville's Bridgestone Arena earlier this month, according to The Tennessean.
Praised for his dynamic stage presence, Bentley delivered a concert experience that blended hit songs, energetic performances, and intentional audience engagement. Billboard noted Bentley’s ability to outshine many newcomers with his onstage ebullience and connection with fans. The tour featured direct support from Lee Brice or Chase Rice, along with a rotating lineup of special guests including Zach Top, Graham Barham, Tyler Braden, and more.
Fans were treated to diverse setlists that spanned Bentley’s two-decade career, from his debut single ‘What Was I Thinkin' to newer tracks like ‘Gold' and ‘Something Real' from his GRAVEL & GOLD album. Bentley also covered country and bluegrass greats, including his popular reimagining of Tom Petty’s ‘American Girl,' which is currently climbing the charts.
With electrifying production touches, including a massive LED wall, and a surprise appearance from Hot Country Knights, Bentley kept crowds energised as they sang along to fan favourites like ‘Friends in Low Places' and ‘Man! I Feel Like A Woman.”'
The 2024 GRAVEL & GOLD TOUR will be remembered for its high energy, musical variety, and Bentley’s ability to captivate audiences across the country. We wonder if we will ever see Bentley cross the pond ever again after his brief dalliance with Europe, almost 10 years ago now.
