Chris Janson’s second album is coming soon…
Tim and Faith like having new opening acts…

Chris Janson’s second album Everybody will be available on September 22nd, It will include his latest single “Fix a Drink” along with the other four songs on the recently-released Fix A Drink EP.
The title of the album was inspired by those who influenced the songs on the new project: everybody. Chris says we can expect real, relatable country songs. Everybody is the follow-up to his 2015 album Buy Me a Boat.

You get a new show almost every time you see the Soul2Soul Tour with Tim McGraw and Faith Hill. They have new opening acts coming and going and that’s exactly what they wanted.
Tim said, “We wanted somebody different every weekend, because it kept it fresh for us as much as anything, but you want people who have inspired you along the way somehow.”
Openers include the Brothers Osborne, Devin Dawson, Brent Cobb, Eric Paslay and a handful of others. Maggie Rose will open when they stop at the Q in Cleveland on August 17th!
