Luke Bryan returned to the road over the weekend on his Proud To Be Right Here Tour, becoming the first major country tour to hit the road this year. After a forced fifteen-month hiatus shut down the concert industry, Luke, along with guests Dylan Scott, Caylee Hammack and DJ Rock, played to capacity crowds in Syracuse, Hershey, and Boston.

The reigning ACM Entertainer of the Year anticipated getting back on the road. “There’s been so much anticipation that we’ve moved tour dates around and we’ve waited for this moment where we can all get back out on the road – the band, the crew, the bus drivers, the truck drivers, the catering people – but then when we stand in front of those crowds and we physically see the people out there having fun, nothing is more special than that,” says Luke. “I make my music to get on stage and perform live, and when I get the opportunity to do it, it’s gonna be amazing.”

His PROUD TO BE RIGHT HERE TOUR is slated to run through October 16th with 35+ shows. His next stops on the trek are Friday (July 16th) in Hartford, Connecticut; Saturday (July 17th) in Bristow, Virginia and Sunday (July 18th) in Holmdel, New Jersey.

Luke has jumped to Top 10 on the country charts with his latest single, “Waves.”
