CMT On Tour Jake Owen: The Summer Never Ends 2012 kicks off Ocotober 10 in New York City with tickets going on sale this friday. Click here to get ticket information.
The tour comes on the heels of a huge year for the Florida native as he has scored back-to-back #1 hits with "Barefoot Blue Jean Night" and "Alone With You." He's performed to millions of fans since his career launched in 2007 along with being the opening artist on the just-completed Brothers Of The Sun Tour featuring Kenny Chesney and Tim McGraw. Jake's first tour appearance was the 2007 addition of CMT On Tour, a tour that was headlined by Sugarland.
“Being the headliner of a tour is something I’ve been dreaming about since I was in college, performing songs every Sunday afternoon on a bar stool and playing for tips,” says Owen. “Headlining the CMT Tour is really cool for me because I was the opening, opening act in 2007, when Sugarland was the headliner and Little Big Town had the middle slot. So now, to be headlining the 11th Annual CMT Tour, with my buddies Love and Theft and Florida Georgia line, it feels very surreal. I’m honored and I can’t wait to hit the road in October and keep that feeling of summer going on THE SUMMER NEVER ENDS tour.”
“The CMT Tour has this incredible history of featuring artists that have gone on to become superstars, capable of filling stadiums and arenas, and now it’s Jake’s turn at headliner status,” said Leslie Fram, SVP of Music Strategy, CMT. “Jake possesses an undeniable star quality that promises to propel him to new heights amongst his peers who have anchored the CMT Tour. We’re also thrilled to feature up-and-coming acts Love and Theft and Florida Georgia Line in this year’s fantastic line-up.”
CMT ON TOUR launched in 2002 and has featured superstars Trace Adkins, Jason Aldean, Luke Bryan, Randy Houser, Jamey Johnson, Miranda Lambert, Brad Paisley, Rascal Flatts, Sugarland and Keith Urban. USA Today has referenced the CMT ON TOUR as the “proving ground for young country acts on the cusp of headliner status.” The tour is produced by Lindsay Bertelli of REACH.
