Morgan Wallen's Big House Double Feature: A Country Music Extravaganza
Ann Arbor, MI – Morgan Wallen is set to make a significant impact in Ann Arbor, performing at the Big House not once, but twice in July. This follows Zach Bryan's record-breaking show last month. The announcement was made by Wallen's team on Thursday, with tickets going on sale November 7th.
Double Header with Special Guests
Wallen will be joined by special guests:
- Thomas Rhett on July 24th
- Hardy on July 25th
Supporting both shows will be Hudson Westbrook and Blake Whiten. These concerts are part of Wallen's "Still the Problem" tour, which kicks off in April and concludes in August.
Giving Back Through Music
The tour isn't just about entertainment; it's also about philanthropy. A portion of every ticket sold goes to Wallen's foundation, the Morgan Wallen Foundation, which supports music and sports programs for kids and aids communities in times of crisis.
Chart-Topping Success
Wallen has been a dominant force in country music. His latest album, "I'm the Problem," debuted at number one and spent 12 weeks at the top of the charts. The album features a duet with Tate McRae, with the song "What I Want" hitting number one on the Hot 100 chart.
Controversies and Comebacks
Wallen's journey to stardom hasn't been without controversy. He has faced incidents involving a racial slur and a recent arrest. Despite these challenges, he has become one of the biggest stars in country music, with his songs amassing over a billion streams on Spotify.
From Ford Field to the Big House
Last year, Wallen sold out shows at Ford Field. Now, he's taking on the Big House. It remains to be seen if he will break the attendance record. He might replicate Zach Bryan's stage setup or opt for a more traditional end stage.
Fans React to the Announcement
Fans are buzzing about the news, with some noticing a post Wallen made after Michigan's National Championship win. The post featured a maize-colored asterisk, which could be a nod to the team's sign-stealing scandal. This move is a reminder that Wallen isn't afraid to stir the pot.
