Tell us your favorite Jason Aldean related story: My favorite was when one of my best friends came from Alabama and i came from Virginia to Nashville. We got to get all dressed up and do the whole red carpet experience to watch Jason be honored at the cmt artists of the year in 2013. We ended up getting lost in the venue and ran into the band and got to chat with them for a few. I think as a long time fan it was such an honor to see Jason receive such an award. He deserves so much more. It was a very special moment to witness in person.

JASON ALDEAN’S “CONCERT FOR THE CURE” MARKS OVER $3.6 MILLION RAISED IN SUPPORT OF THE FIGHT AGAINST BREAST CANCER
Jason Aldean brought his annual “Concert For The Cure” to Friday night’s THEY DON’T KNOW TOUR stop at Louisville, KY’s KFC YUM Center. Featuring special guests Chris Young, Kane Brown and Dee Jay Silver, the night highlighted Aldean’s longstanding partnership with Susan G. Komen® as he donated a portion from all ticket sales garnered throughout the year to Komen Kentucky. Since the inaugural event in 2004, Aldean’s efforts have raised more than $3.6 million to benefit Susan G. Komen chapters across the country.
“These women and their families are fighters,” said Aldean. “We’ve been having them backstage every night for the last couple years now and I’ve heard their stories first-hand. We’re going to keep fighting with them until there’s no more breast cancer.”
“We are so appreciative of Jason’s gift, which will help us to continue providing resources for those affected by breast cancer in our community,” said Lynda Weeks, Executive Director of Susan G. Komen® Kentucky. “This funding will be invested in furthering research and patient services across the Commonwealth. In addition to the generous donation, the Concert for the Cure provided an impactful venue, which allowed us reach thousands with critical facts about breast cancer, including symptoms and screening. Our sincerest thanks go out to Jason Aldean for his support of our mission!”

Jason’s cover of Tom Petty’s “I Won’t Back Town” from his October 7th performance on Saturday Night Live is now available for purchase with all proceeds raised going towards the Direct Impact Fund to benefit victims of the Las Vegas shooting.
“This week, we witnessed one of the worst tragedies in American history,” said Aldean during his cold open of SNL. “Like everyone, I’m struggling to understand what happened that night and how to pick up the pieces and start to heal. So many people are hurting. There are children, parents, brothers, sisters, friends — they’re all part of our family. So I want to say to them: We hurt for you and we hurt with you. But you can be sure we’re going to walk through these tough times together, every step of the way, because when America is at its best, our bond and our spirit, it’s unbreakable.”
Jason has also created a special We Won’t Back Down Tee with all proceeds going towards the Direct Impact Fund to benefit victims of the Las Vegas shooting. You can also donate directly by texting VEGAS to 91999.

WATCH JASON’S CMT ARTISTS OF THE YEAR PERFORMANCE OF “I WON’T BACK DOWN”
Healing Through Music: Instead of award presentations, the 2017 CMT Artists of the Year paid tribute to the victims of recent tragedies. “Given the devastation of Hurricanes Harvey, Irma and Maria and the mass shootings in Las Vegas, we feel a commitment to our fans to address all of the tragedies not in one somber and solemn moment or segment, but rather devote the entire evening to uplifting the fans through high-spirited music,” says CMT & TV Land GM Frank Tanki. “The special has always been a place where artists from different genres can stand side-by-side, and now more than ever, we want to showcase the power of unity and resilience through music.”

STATEMENT FROM JASON ALDEAN UPDATING FANS ON UPCOMING TOUR DATES
“As a result of what happened in Las Vegas this week, we have decided to cancel this coming weekend’s shows. I feel like out of respect for the victims, their families and our fans, it is the right thing to do. It has been an emotional time for everyone involved this week, so we plan to take some time to mourn the ones we have lost and be close with our family and friends. Our plan is to resume the tour the following week in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Our first time back onstage will be a very tough and emotional thing for us, but we will all get through it together and honor the people we lost by doing the only thing we know how to do – play our songs for them. I hope everyone understands why we can’t play this weekend and I’m sorry if anyone is disappointed.
I want to say thank you for the outpouring of love from my friends and fans we have received over the last couple days. You guys have no idea how much you have helped get us through this tough time.”
Thank You and God Bless.
JA
Refunds are available at point of purchase for these cancelled shows: Los Angeles, CA (10/6); San Diego, CA (10/7); and Anaheim, CA (10/8). The tour will resume on October 12 in Tulsa, OK.
