Aaron Lewis and Blackberry Smoke are joining forces for the “Sinners and Sanctified Tour” this fall. The co-headlining tour will kick-off October 12 at Shreveport’s Municipal Auditorium and includes stops at Houston’s Ziegenbock Festival, Little Rock’s Verizon Arena, New York’s Terminal 5, Philadelphia’s Tower Theatre, and many others. New BMLG artist Alex Williams is the special guest on the 18-date tour.
Lewis has been touring in support of his latest album, Sinner, which landed at the top position on the Billboard Top 200 Albums, Top Country Albums and Top Digital Albums Charts upon its release. He collaborates with Willie Nelson, Alison Krauss, Dan Tyminski and Vince Gill on the album’s title track.
Blackberry Smoke’s new album Like An Arrow debuted at No. 1 on both Billboard’s Country Albums and Americana Albums charts as well as No. 3 on the Billboard Rock Albums chart. Recorded just outside of the band’s native Atlanta at The Quarry Recording Studio, the 12-track album was self-produced and features very special guest Gregg Allman on the album’s closing track, “Free On The Wing.”
Ticket pre-sale for the tour begins today, with general tickets going on sale Friday.
