More on Luke Bryan's Farm Tour
Luke Bryan started his Farm Tour in 2010 and has continued the tradition ever since. The singer started the tour to support farming communities, with proceeds from the ticket sales going to charities and local farming communities.
In an exclusive Billboard article published on October 25, 2017, the singer elaborated on the tour, stating that it was a way to honor his heritage:
"My whole existence, and the reason that I’m in country music, was based on me being in an agricultural family. It taught me everything I know about life, and my work ethic. It has shaped who I am. I took all those values, and I brought them to Nashville, and used that hard work to get my career off the ground."
The singer continued:
"I still go back home and talk to my dad, and talk about how the business is going. It’s still very present, and very important in my life...I always loved the aspect of farming that at the end of the day, you could see what you had done that day. If you were working in a field, you started at one end of the field, and by the end of the day, you completed the job"
Earlier in the article, Luke Bryan elaborated on the choice of farms as venues over the years, stating:
"We spread it out through the years. We started out in the southeast, and this year, we worked our way to the Midwest. The main thing we look for is the accessibility for the fans, and how easy it is for them to get in and out. We also ask, ‘If it rains, are we going to have 3,000 vehicles bogged down in the mud?’"
The singer also touched upon the reception of the Farm Tour and how that felt, stating:
"We’ve done it for many years — it’s a lot of work, but it’s something that I believe in, that tugs at my heart to do. Obviously, all of our tour sponsors have come on board, and certainly Bayer. They have been a part of the Farm Tour since the beginning. It’s an amazing fan experience."
Luke Bryan released his latest studio album, Mind of a Country Boy, on September 27, 2024. The eighth studio album of his career, it was released via Capitol Records Nashville and was produced by Jeff Stevens and Jody Stevens. The album runs for a total of 46:38 minutes and consists of 14 tracks.
