Zac Brown Band's summer 'Lions' tour will stop in Burgettstown
The country/rock Zac Brown Band has a June 18 date at S&T Bank Music Park (formerly KeyBank Pavilion) in Burgettstown.
“The ‘Roar with the Lions Tour’ will feature music from the band’s entire discography mixed with a dynamic selection of genre-crossing cover songs that are a signature mark of each Zac Brown Band show,” according to a release.
Indie-folk singer/songwriter Gregory Alan Isakov will be special guest during May and June tour dates, including the Burgettstown show.
“Our summer tour is inspired by the folklore surrounding the figure of the lion. I am a Leo, and all of the guys in the band are lions,” frontman Brown says in the release. “They exemplify strength, courage, intelligence, and loyalty, and work in tandem to defend their territory and one another. The crowd is our pride – rooted in togetherness and fiercely loyal. They always show up for each other, no matter what, just like our fans always show up for us.”
The multi-platinum, Grammy Award-winning group has had six consecutive albums reach the top 10 of the Billboard 200 and five consecutive albums debut at No. 1 on Billboard’s Country Albums chart. The group has won three Grammy Awards, including Best New Artist in 2010, and sold more than 30 million singles and 9 million albums.
The band’s award-winning hits include “Chicken Fried,” “Toes,” “As She’s Walking Away” and “Homegrown.”
