Rascal Flatts Ready Summer Tour With Kelsea Ballerini, Chris Lane
Following the success of their second Las Vegas residency, Rascal Flatts announced Monday (March 7) that their summer headlining tour, Rascal Flatts: Rhythm and Roots, will begin in Charlotte, N.C., on June 17. Kelsea Ballerini and Chris Lane will join the trio as openers each night.
“It’s really important to us that each year our shows are fresh and exciting for our fans,” Jay DeMarcus says in a press release. “We put a lot of thought into how to do that this year and mixing it up in Vegas was really fun so we decided to continue with this new change of pace out on the road this summer. We are so pumped because no-one has ever seen Rascal Flatts like this before and we’re really excited to have such great support this year with Kelsea and Chris too, it’s going to be a blast!”
The tour title borrows the same name given to Rascal Flatts' recent residency at the Joint at Hard Rock Hotel & Casino, which they wrapped this weekend.
“Last year was the first time we ever had backup singers so we changed the show up that way so every song is a little different,” LeVox previously told Taste of Country about the group's Las Vegas stint.
