Green sets Damn Country Tour
Green made the announcement with a nod to the classic "Smokey and the Bandit" with a video featuring Green and all of his opening acts. Tickets go on sale Friday. 27. To purchase tickets, visit Riley Green's website.
Green said, "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 (Langley) every night will be a lot of fun."
Released today in support of the tour, Green offered parody of the 1977 film "Smokey and the Bandit." He channels the legendary Bandit (Burt Reynolds) with 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 set to the tune "East Bound and Down," performed by the late Jerry Reed.
