Five-time GRAMMY® nominee and multi-platinum recording artist Shaboozey lit up the Egyptian Room at Old National Centre last night, launching his Great American Roadshow Tour with a high-energy set that marked his first solo U.S. tour date of 2025.

The Virginia-born singer-songwriter, celebrated for blending country grit with hip-hop swagger, delivered a show that was equal parts celebration and statement. Backed by a roaring crowd, Shaboozey powered through fan favorites like his record-breaking anthem “A Bar Song (Tipsy)”—now RIAA Diamond-certified and the longest-running No. 1 in Billboard Radio Songs history—alongside fresh tracks from his expanded album Where I’ve Been, Isn’t Where I’m Going: The Complete Edition.

“This tour is about bringing people together and celebrating where we’re from and where we’re headed,” Shaboozey told fans during a mid-set pause, his signature cowboy hat tipped low. “America’s music is for everyone.”

The tour, already a sell-out across major markets, will stop in cities including Philadelphia, Nashville, Houston, and Fort Worth before wrapping in Florida next month. It follows a whirlwind year of milestones for the genre-bending star, from explosive sets at Coachella, Stagecoach, Glastonbury, and C2C to multiple nominations across the GRAMMYs, ACMs, CMAs, and AMAs.

Shaboozey’s recent releases have only fueled the excitement: “Good News” became his second No. 1 on Billboard’s Country Airplay chart, while collaborations like “Took a Walk” with Stephen Wilson Jr. and “Move On” with Kevin Powers—released under his new American Dogwood imprint—have showcased his adventurous range. His Thursday Night Football opener “Let ’Em Know” has already become a sports anthem of the season.

After the U.S. run, Shaboozey will take his unmistakable sound to Australia for the first time, joining Jelly Roll on The Down Under 2025 Tour and appearing at major festivals like Strummingbird and Sunburnt Country.

With his unique fusion of country storytelling and hip-hop edge, Shaboozey continues to redefine what modern Americana can sound like.
