Riley Green has announced the details of his 2025 headline ‘Damn Country Music Tour'.
Due to kick off on 27th March in Abbotsford, BC, Canada, the tour was announced with a memorable nod to the classic film ‘Smokey and the Bandit', with a video starring Green and all of his opening acts. Watch it below:
Produced by Live Nation, pre-sale tickets and VIP packages for Riley Green fans are available now with general on-sale this Friday 27th September. To purchase tickets, visit Riley Green’s website. Additional dates to be announced in the coming months.
Of the tour, Green shares, “I learned to play guitar to my granddaddy’s favorite country songs from back in the day and the new album is a throwback to the era when I first became a fan. For this tour I was able to find some of my favorite artists and songwriters to join us, and singing with Ella every night will be a lot of fun.”
Released today in support of the tour, Green is revving up his engine in a hilarious parody of the iconic 1977 film “Smokey and the Bandit.” In a playful reenactment, he channels the legendary Bandit (Burt Reynolds) with Ella Langley as runaway bride Carrie (Sally Field) as they evade the cops in a sleek Pontiac Firebird Trans Am. Green grabs the CB radio to call out to his opening acts, inviting them to join him on the road. The scene is perfectly set to the iconic tune ‘East Bound and Down', performed by the late Jerry Reed, adding a nostalgic flair to this lighthearted tour announcement. Buckle up – this ride promises plenty of laughs and great music!
