with special guest White Reaper
Hailing from Los Angeles, CA, Mötley Crüe —Vince Neil (vocals), Nikki Sixx (bass), Tommy Lee (drums) and Mick Mars (guitars) — has commandeered the rock pantheon for 40+ years. The band has sold over 100 million albums worldwide, garnered 7 USA platinum and multi-platinum albums, 22 Top 40 mainstream rock hits, 6 Top 20 pop singles, 3 Grammy nominations, 5 New York Times best-selling books, a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and a Netflix hit movie. Mötley Crüe continues touring the world with John 5 on guitar as they push the visual limits of live performance. The quartet has amassed over 5 billion streams across digital platforms and the band has over 8 million followers on social media. Known for their iconic live performances, the band has sold-out countless tours across the globe in front of millions of fans with groundbreaking production highlights such as Tommy Lee’s drum-rollercoaster and Nikki Sixx’s flame-throwing-bass. They pioneered the Las Vegas rock residency with a sold out run in 2012. Mötley Crüe’s hit songs such as “Kickstart My Heart” and “Home Sweet Home” are frequently licensed by major brands such as NASCAR, Dodge, Coldwell Banker, Carl’s Jr. and KIA to name a few and their music can be heard on TV hit shows such as Stranger Things and Cobra Kai amongst many others. The band’s biography “The Dirt: Confessions of the World’s Most Notorious Rock Band” became a New York Times best-seller in 2001 and has sold over 1 million copies worldwide. Members of the band have authored 4 additional New York Times best-selling books since. In 2019 Netflix premiered “The Dirt” biopic based on the bestselling book which became a global hit movie scoring a 94% positive audience score on Rotten Tomatoes. As a result, Mötley Crüe gained an entire new generation of young fans who discovered the band through the movie and further solidified their iconic status, relevance and the timelessness of their songwriting. Mötley Crüe remains a huge global draw 40+ years into their career and, in the summer of 2022 co-headlined a nearly sold out North American stadium tour with Def Leppard. The tour continues to travel to stadiums around the world throughout 2023 with John 5 on guitar as the band pushes the limits of live performance.

Everybody loves a good comeback story. After releasing five genre-defining albums and building a fiercely loyal fanbase, Turnpike Troubadours — the Tahlequah, Oklahoma kings of Red Dirt music — all but fell apart in 2019, taking a three-year hiatus to find clarity amidst the noise of a red-hot career. But after the break, something remarkable and even unprecedented happened: the band returned more popular than ever. Not to mention stronger. The proof is in the group’s sixth studio album, A Cat in the Rain. Produced by three-time Grammy winner Shooter Jennings and recorded at the legendary FAME Recording Studios in Muscle Shoals, Alabama, and in Los Angeles, the 10-song album is a tale of reliability, rebirth, and redemption. It’s the story of brothers — frontman and chief songwriter Evan Felker, fiddler Kyle Nix, steel player Hank Early, guitarist Ryan Engleman, bassist RC Edwards, drummer Gabe Pearson — six musicians who ran the gauntlet of success, scrutiny, and even personal troubles, and would fight tooth and nail for one another. Turnpike Troubadours’ fans can feel this. That bond is in the band’s songs and in their live performances — they’ve racked up 1.5 billion streams globally and are selling out arenas and headlining festivals. Still, to some, they remain a mystery…the most popular band they’ve never heard of. But with A Cat in the Rain, that’s all about to change.

Sawyer Brown: It’s hard to know where to start when talking about Sawyer Brown. More than 4500 shows and counting. More than a million miles behind them and still seeing the highway miles click by outside their bus window. Twenty-three albums. More than 50 chart singles. CMA, ACM, and CMT awards on the shelf. To pull a line from one of the band’s enduring hits: “This is the life and times of a travelin’ band.” A traveling band, indeed. Always on the move—on the road, on stage, and in their career. When asked about what keeps him motivated on the road, lead singer Mark Miller says, “It’s playing the next show. Be grateful for where you’ve been and be excited about where you’re going.” The band’s live shows are legendary. Having been described as “the Rolling Stones of Country Music,” the band bounds onto the stage night after night, delivering its own unique brand of high-energy entertainment, and the band remains a perennial favorite at fairs, festivals, theatres, and casinos. That excitement has been on display since the very first time Sawyer Brown stepped foot onstage in the early 1980s. Beginning as the road band for another singer, Sawyer Brown broke out on their own playing everything from clubs to pig roasts in those earliest days. “There’s no such thing as a gig we wouldn’t take,” Miller laughs, remembering the beginning of the ride. “We knew that we wanted to play music and we knew that we wanted to work at being the best live band there was—and the only way to do that, was to get out and play shows. And so we did.” The band has earned its place as one of the premier live acts in music. The band began by playing 275-300 nights a year for the first decade or more of its career—and has never come off the road. Tireless road warriors, the band thrives on playing live. “Live is where it all comes together for us,” keyboardist Hobie Hubbard says. “The audience brings its own energy, we bring our own energy and the music—and the combination of all of that is what makes playing live so unique. We’re blessed to be able to be a part of those moments night after night.”

mgk is a GRAMMY-nominated multi-platinum recording artist who is an atomic force in music, entertainment, film and fashion. In 2020, the Cleveland, Ohio native eclipsed genre expectations releasing a Rock/Pop Punk album, the widely acclaimed Tickets to My Downfall. The platinum album topped the Billboard 200 and became his first No. 1 effort. Tickets to My Downfall landed 18 tracks on the Hot Rock Songs chart and spawned two No. 1 songs on the alternative side with “bloody valentine” and “my ex’s best friend,” which both went platinum. In 2022 he followed with mainstream sellout, his second album to hit No. 1 on the Billboard 200 cementing his status as a chart-topping artist. The album was nominated for a 2023 Grammy Award for “Best Rock Album” and was supported with a sold-out stadium and arena North American and Europe tour. The US leg ended in his hometown of Cleveland at the FirstEnergy Stadium playing to 50,000 fans, making him the first and only Ohio native to sell out the stadium. As of 2022, mgk has had a record 45 entries on Hot Rock & Alternative Songs, the most among any solo artist. For his contributions to music, he was named as one of 2022’s Time 100 Next, a list honoring the emerging leaders from around the world who are shaping the future and defining the next generation of leadership. The genre-bending icon has amassed numerous awards over his career including “US Artist About to Go Global” at the 2012 MTV EMA’s, MTV’s 2012 “Breaking Woodie” Award, 2013 “Woodie of the Year,” “Favorite Rock Artist” for the 2021 and 2022 AMAs, “Top Rock Album” and “Top Rock Artist” for the 2021 Billboard Music Awards, 2020 and 2021 MTV VMA’s for “Best Alternative Video,” a 2021 iHeart Radio Award for “Alternative Rock Album of the Year” and 2022’s “Alternative Artist of the Year.” He’s appeared on Saturday Night Live, The Voice, The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon, Late Night with Seth Meyers, Ellen, The Kelly Clarkson Show, BET’s 106 & Park, Good Morning America, The Nickelodeon Kids Choice Awards and several other programs and award shows.
Shaboozey
An artist at the crossroads of country and hip-hop, Shaboozey creates the kind of songs that feel as epic as a movie: gripping, unpredictable, immense in scope but rooted in raw emotion. On his new album Where I’ve Been Isn’t Where I’m Going, the Virginia-bred singer/songwriter charts a cinematic road trip through the wilds of the American West, bringing a powerful new depth to his storytelling while pushing further into the country/folk-inspired sound he’s explored in recent years. The latest turn in a dynamic career that began with the breakout success of his viral hit “Jeff Gordon”—and also includes such triumphs as appearing on the soundtrack to the Academy Award-winning blockbuster Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse—Where I’ve Been Isn’t Where I’m Going is the most boldly realized work yet from a singular new voice on the music scene.
Born to parents of Nigerian descent and raised in the small town of Woodbridge, Shaboozey grew up on an eclectic mix of music encompassing everything from country icons like Kenny Rogers and Garth Brooks to R&B and hip-hop (including fellow Virginia natives Pharrell, Timbaland, and Missy Elliott). Although his childhood dream was to become a novelist, he started experimenting with making music in high school and soon joined a collective of local artists—a turn of events that greatly expanded his creative horizons. “I learned how to produce, engineer, edit videos,” says Shaboozey, a multidimensional artist who takes a hands-on role in the visual component of his output. “Where I’m from, the only way it feels possible to make it in music is to try out for American Idol, but I always knew I needed to pursue it in a way that came from my own vision.” After scoring a viral hit with “Jeff Gordon” when he was just 18, Shaboozey relocated to Los Angeles and brought that vision to a series of projects echoing his kaleidoscopic influences (blues legend Lead Belly, folk poet Leonard Cohen, Afrobeat pioneer Fela Kuti, to name a few), including his 2018 debut album Lady Wrangler. As his profile rose, he joined forces with L.A.-bred rapper/singer/songwriter DUCKWRTH for “Start a Riot” (a cut from the Into the Spider-Verse soundtrack), then inked a deal with EMPIRE and delivered his sophomore album Cowboys Live Forever, Outlaws Never Die—a 2022 LP that artfully fused country and trap and showcased his soul-searching songwriting on hit singles like “Tall Boy.”
Produced with his close collaborators Sean Cook and Nevin Sastry, Where I’ve Been Isn’t Where I’m Going marks a major leap forward for Shaboozey, thanks in part to a deliberate shift in his creative process. “In the past I was getting a lot of beats and building up songs from there, but for this one we wrote all the music from scratch and tailored everything to the stories I wanted to tell,” he says. “I wanted to make something without any limitations, and elevate my songwriting so that you feel every line in your gut.” Deeply informed by his love for outlaw-country artists and indie-folk singer/songwriters like Gregory Alan Isakov—and by his recent experience in learning to play guitar— Shaboozey’s third full-length includes hits like “Let It Burn”: a heavy-hearted but triumphant track that shot to the top 10 on Spotify’s USA Viral 50 soon after its premiere in fall 2023. “To me ‘Let It Burn’ captures the whole theme of the album,” he says. “It’s about letting go of the things that have caused you pain in the past, and moving on to a better future.”
With its potent collision of rugged guitar work and rhythms that hit on a visceral level, Where I’ve Been Isn’t Where I’m Going also spotlights Shaboozey’s sharply detailed storytelling and soulful vocals on tracks like “Annabelle”—a breakup song that brings bright but moody strumming to his unguarded outpouring of pain. “A friend of mine showed me that guitar part and it immediately felt like a heartbreak song,” he says. “I went into the studio and freestyled all those lyrics, which is something I really value about my background in hip-hop. It taught me to just let it flow and see where the song takes you.” And on “Vegas,” spaghetti-western guitar tones and hypnotic beats form the backdrop to a sing-along-ready reflection on risk and regret (from the chorus: “Treat my heart like a day-old paper/Ran me wild, drove me crazy/Old vibrations, familiar faces…Lived my life like it was one big Vegas”). “That song came from thinking about how love is often the reason we make certain moves, and how one of the biggest gambles I ever made with my life was packing up and leaving my hometown with someone I thought I loved,” he says. “There’s the type of people who win big and then take their earnings and head home, and then there’s the people who put it right back in and try to double it. And the latter is definitely more like my life story.”
Also featuring standouts like the brooding stomp-and-clap anthem “Last of My Kind,” Where I’ve Been Isn’t Where I’m Going centers on lush and sweeping soundscapes that recall the wide-open space of Shaboozey’s hometown—a place that continues to shape his growth and journey as an artist. “From the beginning one of my biggest goals was to go out there and build a sound for Virginia, something people could really feel inspired by,” he says. “I want everyone to know that you can do what you want with your life no matter where you come from, and I hope my music compels people to get up and do something—dance, fall in love, whatever it is that makes them feel alive.”

Hold onto your cowboy hats, because Thomas Rhett is rewriting the country music rulebook! Ten years after signing with Big Machine Label Group’s The Valory Music Co., this arena-packing superstar has racked up an impressive streak of 21 No. One singles, making him the reigning monarch of consecutive hits. His latest album, WHERE WE STARTED, isn’t just music; it’s a demand for a massive crowd, according to Esquire.

But that’s not all – he’s also the mastermind behind Dos Primos, a tequila brand offering Blanco, Reposado, and Añejo variants. Move over, Nashville; Thomas Rhett isn’t just making music; he’s turning each sip of Dos Primos into a chart-topping experience!

As the most nominated artist at the 2023 CMA Awards with a record-breaking nine nominations, and five wins including Entertainer of the Year, Lainey Wilson has earned the enthusiasm of the industry. Critically acclaimed and touted as a top “artist to watch,” to being the leading female nominee and winner at the 2023 ACM Awards and CMT Music Awards, the Louisiana native has made a name for herself in the industry as one of music’s hottest and most buzzed-about new artists. Landing her first No. 1 with her PLATINUM Certified ACM Song of the Year, “Things A Man Oughta Know,” nearly 10 years to the day after leaving her small farming community in a camper trailer to chase her dreams, she has won over legions of fans with her signature Bell Bottom Country sound and aesthetic, which blends traditional Country with a modern yet retro flare. A prolific and sought-after songwriter (having co-writer credits on songs by artists including Luke Combs, Flatland Calvary, Ashley McBryde, Jackson Dean, Ashley Cooke, Mackenzie Porter, and more). With a rockstar stage presence, her artistry has taken her across the globe, performing for sold-out crowds throughout the US, UK, and Germany with notable names like Jon Pardi, Luke Combs, Morgan Wallen, HARDY, Jason Aldean, and more. Earlier this year she achieved her third and fourth No. 1 songs with “Heart Like a Truck” and HARDY collaboration “wait in the truck”. Her most recent singles, “Watermelon Moonshine” and “Save Me” with Jelly Roll topped the Country charts marking her fifth and sixth No. 1’s, making her the lead female artist with the most No.1’s this decade. Her critically acclaimed album, Bell Bottom Country, rose up Billboard’s Top Album Chart and Country Albums Chart, amassing over 700 million streams to date and has earned her the title of CMA and ACM Album of the Year and a Grammy nomination for Country Album of the Year. Wilson made her acting debut in Season 5 of the smash hit series “Yellowstone” as a musician character named Abby, where she premiered her original “Smell Like Smoke” as well as showcased other hits off her recent album including “Watermelon Moonshine” and “Hold My Halo”. Adding to her growing list of endeavors, Wilson was honored at Billboard’s Women in Music Awards with the Rulebreaker Award, and most recently joined forces with Wrangler as the face of their 2023 fall/winter women’s collection.
