Following the announcement of his eighth studio album, BLACK, Dierks Bentley has introduced the project’s lead single, “Somewhere On A Beach,” as well as the cities slated as part of the U.S. leg of his 2016 Somewhere On A Beach Tour.
The trek will launch May 12 in Holmdel, New Jersey, at the PNC Bank Arts Center. Along for the ride are Randy Houser and Cam. Tickets can be purchased beginning Jan. 29 for select cities as part of Live Nation’s Country Megaticket at megaticket.com. In addition to 34 cities in the U.S. and three in Canada, Bentley’s Somewhere On A Beach Tour will visit the United Kingdom and Ireland.
“This album is about ALL phases of a relationship, including the breakups,” said Bentley. ”’Beach’ is a pretty blunt take on that wild rebound we’ve all had or maybe imagined having. The carefree attitude is exactly the spirit we wanted to bring out on the road this year. I’ve toured with Randy before, and he’s just a great dude?on stage and backstage. And I’ve gotten to know Cam a little over the last year, and she’s fun as hell too and so talented. It’s going to be a big summer for sure.”
