Tickets: $64 – $184
Three of the voices that defined 90s country music – Sammy Kershaw,
Aaron Tippin and Collin Raye – join forces in the Roots & Boots tour.
Combined, the trio has amassed more than 40 Top 10 radio smash hits and
sold more than 25 million albums. These iconic country artists come
together on stage to swap stories and perform their classic songs!
AARON TIPPIN: Tippin has crusaded for the working man and woman since he
ripped country music wide open with his uncompromising single “You’ve
Got To Stand For Something.” His voice continued to ring loud and clear
with such hits as “I Wouldn’t Have It Any Other Way”, “There Ain’t
Nothin’ Wrong With The Radio”, “That’s As Close As I’ll Get To Loving
You,” “Where the Stars and Stripes and Eagles Fly” and “Kiss This”. Five
of his albums are certified “Gold” and a sixth, Read Between The
Lines—stands at the “Platinum” level. Tippin’s honest lyrics and direct,
impassioned vocals have built a large and devoted audience.
SAMMY KERSHAW: In the course of breaking into the ranks of stardom in
country music, Sammy Kershaw has made contributions to more than just
the charts. His platinum albums were propelled into the records books by
hits such as “She Don’t Know She’s Beautiful,” “I Can’t Reach Her
Anymore,” “National Working Woman’s Holiday,” “Love Of My Life,”
“Cadillac Style,” “Don’t Go Near The Water,” “Haunted Heart,”…and many
other milestones.
COLLIN RAYE: Collin Raye is nothing if not passionate. His soulful
delivery has set country standards in such searing ballads as “Love,
Me,” “In This Life,” “Not That Different” and “If I Were You”. Always an
energizing showman, he has also blazed through such vivid rockers as “My
Kind of Girl,” “That’s My Story,” “I Can Still Feel You” and “I Want You
Bad.” With 24 top ten records, 16 #1 hits, and having been a 10 time
male vocalist of the year nominee (5 CMA and 5 ACM), this truly
electrifying performer of his era remains one of the great voices of our
time.
