Jason celebrated the success of his recent three consecutive No. One hits, “Burnin’ It Down,” “Just Gettin’ Started” and “Tonight Looks Good On You,” off of his PLATINUM record OLD BOOTS, NEW DIRT this week (8/11).

BURN IT DOWN TOUR HITS 2 MILLION MARK IN TICKET SALES

With other 54,000 fans in attendance at Sports Authority Field at Mile High in Denver, CO this weekend, Jason Aldean’s BURN IT DOWN TOUR has officially surpassed two million in ticket sales. Capacity crowds and triumphant stadium shows have been a common denominator for RIAA’s top digital country male artist of all time. Far from over, “the ideal country star” (Orlando Sentinel) has also already sold out upcoming stops at MetLife Stadium (8/15) and two nights at Boston’s Gillette Stadium (8/28, 8/29).

“I’ll always be surprised to look up and see that many people…the Aldean Army is rocking harder than ever,” said Aldean. “But the thing that really kills me is when I look up and see their faces and see how much these songs really mean to them. They are partying harder than anyone during the uptempo stuff and then when I think they may want to slow things down and catch their breath on the ballads, they are belting the words with so much passion…300 pound dudes are crying and hugging each other. Having that kind of effect on a stadium full of people is something I will never ever get used to.”

Dubbed by People as “the ultimate concert,” the record-breaking BURN IT DOWN TOUR continues through October with a special 10th Annual “Concert For The Cure” scheduled at his West Palm Beach tour date (10/24). Like years past, ACM’s three-time and reigning “Male Vocalist of the Year” has set aside a portion of ticket sales throughout the year, which will be donated to Susan G. Komen South Florida to support the West Palm Beach Area. New this year, Aldean has also been honoring two brave survivors at tour stops nominated through fan submissions.

HISTORIC ROSE BOWL BURN IT DOWN TOUR STOP!

Delivering “an explosive 85-minute show” (OC Register) Rose Bowl stadium’s first country co-headliner Jason Aldean spent Saturday (7/25) evening with more than 53,000 fans. RIAA’s top digital country male artist of all time will next trek to New York City on Friday (7/31) to perform on TODAY’s 20th Annual Summer Concert Series (7:00A ET/CT on NBC).

“Standing out there in a sea of country fans at an iconic stadium like Rose Bowl sent chills down my spine,” said Aldean. “It reminds me how lucky I am to be doing this for a living. We’ll do it again at the crack of dawn with the TODAY gang on Friday…I hope to see a lot of people there too!”

The three-time and reining ACM “Male Vocalist of the Year” also just celebrated his 16th career chart-topper marking three consecutive No. one singles off OLD BOOTS, NEW DIRT, which was the first album released in 2014 that was also certified PLATINUM the same year.

In the midst of his “most explosive tour ever” (Rolling Stone), Aldean’s headlining 2015 BURN IT DOWN TOUR is hailed by critics as a “game-changing run” (Billboard) and continues this weekend at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, MO (8/1).

JASON EARNS 16TH #1 SONG + SOLD OUT WEEKEND OF MORE THAN 110,000 FANS

Coming off a record-breaking sold-out weekend on the 2015 BURN IT DOWN TOUR with more than 110,000 fans in attendance, RIAA’s top digital country male artist of all time Jason Aldean celebrates his 16th No. one single as “Tonight Looks Good On You” summits both the Billboard Country Airplay and Mediabase radio charts this week. This is the 3rd consecutive chart-topper from his PLATINUM certified album OLD BOOTS, NEW DIRT.

“Being able to look out into a stadium full of people and have them singing and swaying to this song has been a pretty cool thing the last two months,” said Aldean. “We’ve never really needed much of an excuse to throw down backstage or get a little bit rowdy, but I have a feeling the party might be bigger than usual this weekend in Pasadena.”

Over the weekend, Aldean sold out Chicago’s Amphitheater before two nights at Target Field in Minneapolis, MN (7/18, 7/19), setting an impressive attendance record on Saturday with more than 44,000 fans. His show-stopping set showcased “live vocals that are better than ever” (Star Tribune) and his “confident swagger” (The Times), and will continue this weekend in Paso Robles, CA (7/24) and Pasadena, CA (7/25) where he will headline a historic first-ever country concert at the Rose Bowl.
