Dierks Bentley Announces 2011 Country & Cold Cans Tour

Multi-Platinum singer/songwriter Dierks Bentley will kick off the first leg of his Country & Cold Cans Tour beginning Oct. 6 in Lacrosse, WI. Special guests Jerrod Niemann and Eli Young Band will open for Bentley on the 22 city run that wraps in Denver, CO on Nov. 19.  

 

"It's been a killer summer playing festivals all over the country and partying with the most die-hard country music fans out there," says Bentley. "We're going to crank up the 'Country & Cold Cans' tour in the Fall and keep it going. I can't imagine that I'll have to convince Jerrod or EYB to have a cold beer or two…they are always up for the party."

 

Bentley’s current hit “Am I The Only One" is just a notch away from taking the top spot on the country singles chart. Bentley is currently finishing up his sixth studio album. It follows the critically acclaimed Up On The Ridge, which earned Album of the Year nominations at the ACM, CMA and GRAMMY Awards this year. His previous five albums have sold over five million copies, earned 10 GRAMMY nominations, have spawned seven number one hits and 12 Top 10 hits.

 

Jerrod Niemann is enjoying the success of his current hit, "One More Drinkin' Song," which follows his two RIAA-certified Gold Digital Singles, the Top Five “What Do You Want” and number one “Lover, Lover.” 

 

Eli Young Band’s current single “Crazy Girl,” has been certified GOLD and has sold over 600,000 downloads to date. The band’s new album Life At Best is due to hit stores on August 16. “Crazy Girl” made its debut at No. one as the most added single at Billboard and catapulted to the top of the iTunes Country singles chart landing at No. one just 15 hours after release.
