Tim McGraw ‘08 Live Your Voice Tour stops at Amphitheatre
Article published on Tuesday, May 6, 2008 |
TAMPA - Tim McGraw ‘08 Live Your Voice Tour, with special guest Jason Aldean and Halfway To Hazard, kicks off Friday, May 9, 8 p.m., at the Ford Amphitheatre in Tampa.
After wrapping the most successful consecutive multi-year tour in country music history last year, “Soul2Soul II,” with wife Faith Hill, McGraw returns to touring in 2008 as a solo act.
McGraw, an electrifying performer who has headlined and sold out shows since 1993, is known for his dynamic stage performances and state-of-the-art production. McGraw has proven himself as one of the top entertainers in the entire music industry.
McGraw is the only country music artist in 2007 to be named a Top 10 earner by Forbes Magazine. He recently won his 11th CMA award and his first-ever BMI award as a songwriter for the co-penned hit “My Little Girl,” and was named Billboard’s Top Male Artist in country music in 2007. McGraw also scored four Grammy nominations this year.
Following closely on the heels of his platinum certified self-titled debut, Jason Aldean’s sophomore album Relentless propelled him to the front lines of country music this year with unprecedented sales. The two albums have produced four hit singles - “Hicktown,” “Why,” “Amarillo Sky” and “Johnny Cash” - and four No. 1 videos to date, along with multiple industry award nominations including CMA’s prestigious Horizon Award. His current single “Laughed Until We Cried” is already a Top 20 hit and climbing.
Praised by critics and fans alike for his high-energy live show, Aldean has been working audiences since he was 14 in bars and clubs across the Southeast.
“I’m excited to get a chance to work with Tim,” says Aldean. “I came up through the clubs covering his music every night, so going on tour with him now definitely feels surreal.”
Reserve seat tickets are $63.75 and festival lawn are $33.75. Tickets are available at the Ford Amphitheatre Box Office, online at www.livenation.com, all Ticketmaster Outlets, or charge by phone at 727-898-2100.
