Nashville – Five-time Entertainer of the Year Luke Bryan blazed the trail for the country music industry this weekend with the launch of his PROUD TO BE RIGHT HERE TOUR becoming the first major country tour to hit the road this year. After a forced fifteen-month hiatus shut down the concert industry, Luke, along with guests Dylan Scott, Caylee Hammack and DJ Rock, played to capacity crowds in Syracuse, Hershey, and Boston. His PROUD TO BE RIGHT HERE TOUR is slated to run through October 16 with 35+ shows.
From the stage this weekend Luke thanked his fans for enduring all the postponements, schedule changes and delays before getting to this weekend. “It means the world to me that you guys showed up after all these changes.”

Media exclaimed Luke’s performance “set the bar high for the rest of the concert season,” “was electrifying” as “the excitement of watching live music was evident in the crowd.”
The tour was originally announced in January 2020 to come alongside Luke’s BORN HERE LIVE HERE DIE HERE album release and was named from a line in the album’s title track. Since the tour was paused due to the global pandemic, Luke’s fans remained dedicated and helped to send multiple songs from the album to #1- “Knockin’ Boots,” “What She Wants Tonight,” “One Margarita,” and “Down To One”- most that Luke has yet to play live.
