Jamey johnson plots 2018 north american tour

It’s been more than five years since Jamey Johnson released his last full-length album, but that hasn’t stopped the outspoken outlaw from hitting the road on an annual basis. He kicks off

another year’s worth of cross-country touring next week, with a schedule of theater dates, amphitheater gigs and festival performances that currently stretches into the mid-summer months.

Everything begins on February 11th at the Seminole Hard Rock Casino in Hollywood, Florida. From there, Johnson’s tour zigzags across the Bible Belt and the Midwest, with a two-night stand at

Athens’ Georgia Theatre and an appearance at Merlefest tossed into the mix. Notably absent from the schedule are any performances in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, where Johnson cancelled a

2017 performance at the House of Blues after taking issue with the venue’s weapons policy. Instead, the songwriter will headline this year’s Farm Bash in Gaston, located three hours inland

from the South Carolina coast. TRENDING STORIES The dates for the first leg of Jamey Johnson’s 2018 show are below. February 11 – Hollywood, FL @ Seminole Hard Rock Casino February 22 –
