Multiplatinum-selling country artist Justin Moore has set his first-ever headline date at the historic Ryman Auditorium in Nashville, TN for Wednesday, May 2, 2018. Mercury Nashville’s Travis Denning and The Valory Music Co. and SiriusXM Highway Find Artist Tyler Rich will open the show, which is separate from Moore’s current arena-dwelling “Hell On A Highway Tour.”
It’s sentimental because I’m a huge fan of the tradition of country music,” Moore tells Cindy Watts of The Tennessean. “For me, playing the Ryman is more about that and all the people who have played there and what it’s meant to country music as a whole from generation to generation.”
Fans can expect to hear chart-toppers like “If Heaven Wasn’t So Far Away,” “Small Town USA,” and “Outlaws Like Me,” as well as songs from Moore’s third and latest number one Billboard Country Album ‘Kinda Don’t Care’ (2016).
Almost exactly nine years-to-date prior (April 30, 2009), Moore first graced the hallowed stage of The Mother Church as part of Opry Country Classics, performing songs like “I’ve Always Been Crazy” (Waylon Jennings), “Amarillo by Morning” (George Strait) and “You Never Even Called Me By My Name” (David Allen Coe). He has also performed at the Ryman as part of Charlie Daniels’ Christmas 4 Kids and Marty Stuart’s Annual Late Night Jam, and additional performances in Nashville include concerts at Nissan Stadium and Bridgestone Arena.
Ticket pre-sales begin Wednesday, February 14th, at 10 AM CST, followed by the official on-sale Friday, February 16th, at 10 AM CST. To purchase, please visit justinmooremusic.com/#Shows.

Justin Moore’s long-awaited fourth studio album “Kinda Don’t Care” earned the singer his third consecutive No. 1 album debut and features his chart-topping singles “You Look Like I Need A Drink” and “Somebody Else Will.” His current single, the title track from the album, is climbing up the charts. The project is chock-full of new music with 16 tracks on the deluxe version and skyrocketed to No. 1 on the iTunes Country chart upon release.
The Arkansas-native spent three years putting the project together, which serves as a follow up to his second No. 1 album release, the GOLD-certified “Off The Beaten Path.” Moore holds seven No. 1’s under his signature white cowboy hat including “Point at You” and “Lettin’ The Night Roll,” as well as seven Top 10 hits and Platinum-certified albums “Justin Moore” and “Outlaws Like Me.” The Valory Music Co. recording artist has earned multiple ACM, ACA and ACC Awards nominations. He has shared the stage with Hank Williams Jr., Brad Paisley, Miranda Lambert and Brantley Gilbert and recently kicked off the second leg of his fourth headline trek, the “Hell On A Highway Tour.”
