Truth be told, Hank Williams Jr. isn't one to hit the road frequently these days, but when he decides to tour, he goes all in and all out! The Country Music Hall of Famer has announced thirteen dates for his upcoming trek dedicated to celebrating the 45th anniversary of his studio album Family Traditions.
The famous record was a critical and commercial success, rising to the No. 3 spot on the Billboard Top Country Albums chart when it was published back in April 1979. On this special occasion, expect to hear more great tunes originating from the legendary record, such as “I Fought The Law,” “Old Flame, New Fire,” and “To Love Somebody.”
Channeling their warm country charm, Hank will have the support of Whiskey Myers, Neal McCoy, Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, Marty Stuart & His Fabulous Superlatives, and Old Crow Medicine Show on select dates. So, if you're hankering for additional live gigs from this country superstar, take a look at other dates stamped on this trek!
Currently, Williams has earned fifteen Gold-certified albums, forty-two Top 10 hits, eight Platinum albums, and nine #1 country albums. In addition, he has won four Emmy Awards for composing the theme song of Monday Night Football, and he has been inducted into the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame. Take note, folks - if you skip this event, you’re passing on the opportunity to see one of the biggest country stars in the world!
“As a concert, Hank, Jr. brought the Hank the crowd paid to see… the hat and shades, the beer-burp smile, the guitar strap on the wrong shoulder, the hits, the Hank, Sr. covers, the drinking songs, lots of spitting. Musically, the show was defined by loud blues-based country-rock, even when he was playing his daddy’s songs,” Riverfront Times shares.
