"I'm looking forward to having Jason, Chad and David out there this year," said McGraw. "They are among the best live performers out there and I think it's a great combination that the fans will enjoy." The tour is slated to launch in Tampa, Fla. in May.
Known for his dynamic stage performances and state-of-the-art production, McGraw has proven himself one of the top entertainers in the music industry. In 2007, he was the only country music artist to be named a Top 10 money earner by Forbes. He recently won his 11th Country Music Award (CMA) and his first BMI award as a songwriter for the hit "My Little Girl." McGraw was named Billboard's Top Country Male Artist last year and also earned four Grammy nominations.
Following closely on the heels of his platinum-certified self-titled debut, Aldean's second album, Relentless, has propelled him to the front lines of country music this year with unprecedented sales. His current single, "Laughed Until We Cried," already is a Top 20 hit and continues to climb the charts. The two albums combined have produced four hit singles ("Hicktown," "Why," "Amarillo Sky" and "Johnny Cash) and four No. 1 videos to date. He also has received multiple industry award nominations including CMA's prestigious "Horizon Award."
Halfway to Hazard spent 2007 on the road with McGraw and Hill, warming up crowds and promoting their self-titled debut on Mercury/StyleSonic Records. The debut single "Daisy," produced by McGraw and Byron Gallimore, immediately broke into the Top 40. The energetic duo hails from Hazard, Kent. and is looking forward to sharing the stage with McGraw in 2008. "Tim has been great to us and there's nothing like being in front of 20,000 or 30,000 people a night and playing your music. We can't wait to start."
McGraw also is known for his innovative tour branding and this year has chosen to partner with KC Masterpiece® and Kingsford® as official tour sponsors. The two brands will be presenting sponsors and hosts of the VIP Pre-Show Party where McGraw will perform a private acoustic set prior to each show.
Fritos ® and McGraw also have developed an integrated partnership which includes Fritos ® as the tour's "official snack" and the presenting sponsor of the "StyleSonic Stage." The stage will feature artists chosen by McGraw, including the likes of Lance Miller and Catherine Raney, who will perform prior to the start of each concert.
