Business Wire
Exclusive performance will broadcast on
SiriusXM The Highway
Pandora and SiriusXM announced today that country superstar Jon
Pardi will perform September 23 in Atlanta as part of the Pandora
LIVE concert series. RaeLynn and Dillon Carmichael are confirmed to
open the show that will take place at the Buckhead Theatre. Pandora
listeners who are 21+ can RSVP for the free event HERE.
The performance by Pardi will be broadcast live on SiriusXM The
Highway (ch. 56).
After touring with Luke Bryan, Dierks Bentley and Eric Church,
Pardi is now hitting the road for his Heartache Medication
headlining tour, in support of his upcoming album Heartache
Medication. The long-awaited third studio album will be released
four days post event, and fans in attendance will be the first to
hear select new tracks live. The show marks the unofficial kickoff
to the new album and tour, and the only time this year he’ll
perform in Atlanta. Additionally, Pardi has become a Pandora
Billionaire, achieving over 1 billion lifetime spins on Pandora and
will be presented with a plaque at the concert.
With over 300 million streams to date, ACM New Female Vocalist
nominee and NBC’s The Voice contestant RaeLynn will bring her hits
and soon to be released new music to Pandora LIVE. Since her debut
album Wildhorse arrived at No. 1 on Billboard’s Country Albums
Chart and Top 10 on Billboard’s All-Genre Albums Sales Chart in
2017, she has gone on to tour with Kane Brown, Blake Shelton, Maren
Morris, Miranda Lambert and many others. She also became the first
country artist to be the face of a Too Faced cosmetics line
available worldwide and has earned numerous award nominations
including the Academy of Country Music, Radio Disney Music Awards
and CMT Music Awards.
Over 2.3 million lifetime Pandora streams helped Dillon
Carmichael to be named one of Pandora’s 2019 Country Artists to
Watch. His debut album Hell On An Angel had critics raving
including Parade who boldly declared that he “defines pure
country.”
“Atlanta is a hotbed for country music, and we are excited to
bring three of the genre’s most traditional - and most exciting –
artists to our loyal listeners there,” says Beville Dunkerley, Head
of Country Music at Pandora. “Helping Jon Pardi launch his
incredible new album and celebrate his billion-spin Pandora
milestone make this Pandora LIVE event all the more special. I’m
equally pumped for fans to hear RaeLynn’s game-changing new music
in such an intimate setting. She and Dillon Carmichael are both
alums of our Pandora Artists to Watch program, and it’s important
to us to keep the support going as their careers rise.”
Pandora LIVE attendees will be treated to unique onsite
experiences and giveaways from sponsors including First Alert®,
Honda Powersports, Jersey Mike’s Subs, Kingsford® Charcoal, Purex®
brand, Shipt, SoundWaves™ at Gaylord Opryland®, Tastykake®,
TitleMax®, and U.S. Bank.
