Dierks Bentley, who just scored his 21st No. 1 single with “Beers On Me,” is excited to be back after two years with his Seven Peaks Festival. The three-day musical event will take place this Labor Day Weekend (September 2nd – September 4th) at the new location of Villa Grove, Colorado.

Dierks has a packed schedule during the festival, but that’s just the way he likes it. Not only does he headline one night, but he’s also hosting the entire event, as well. “I almost forget that I’m playing the festival,” he says. “You know, I’m so busy running around and try for every band to just let them know, ‘Hey, I’m the guy that’s putting this on,’ and I’m not just backstage hanging on my bus. I go to see, I only missed like one or two performances in 2019, that’s just because of a meet and greet I was doing or something. So, I go watch everybody. You know, I get up on stage and I sing with a lot of people. I’m out in the campgrounds a lot, you know, and then all of a sudden, it’s like, Oh, Sunday night, like, I actually have to play a show to watch this year, like hosting this. I’m also like, I got to go up and do the whole thing, kind of switch gears.”

The lineup includes Morgan Wallen, with additional main stage performances by Boy Named Banjo, Ashley Cooke, Jordan Davis, Jackson Dean, Travis Denning, HARDY,  Kendell Marvel, Ashley McBryde, Old Crow Medicine Show, Caitlyn Smith, Rapidgrass, Alana Springsteen and Lainey Wilson. Friday night of the festival will kick off with a special stacked lineup of 90’s acts including Hot Country Knights, Tracy Lawrence, The Frontmen and Pam Tillis, while AYDAMN will be deejaying throughout the weekend. Passes are now on sale at sevenpeaksfestival.com.

Dierks Bentley takes “Beers On Me” to the top of Mediabase/Country Aircheck Singles chart and Billboard’s Country Airplay chart this week, notching his 21st career No. One. Joining forces and voices with rising country hotshots BRELAND and HARDY, Bentley sings a “summertime ode to cold beers and good friends, with a few shots of reality thrown in for good measure” (People) ahead of launching his BEERS ON ME TOUR with special guests Ashley McBryde and Travis Denning, kicking off June 3rd in Wilmington, North Carolina. It was recently announced that his SEVEN PEAKS MUSIC FESTIVAL will once again return this Labor Day Weekend, September 2-4, in a new scenic setting of San Luis Valley in Villa Grove, CO, as passes will go on sale to the general public this Friday (4/22 at 10:00A MT) at sevenpeaksfestival.com.

“From start to finish this song was a true collaboration, and to do it with BRELAND and HARDY really means a lot,” Bentley said. “They both bring something that’s so needed in Country music right now and can’t thank the fans and Country radio enough for embracing this one. I’m lucky to have gotten a chance to work with these two and it’s cool to be able to celebrate BRELAND’s first number one song – as an artist and songwriter – with him.”

“I’ve been so fortunate over the years to have many No. 1s, I mean a lot of No. 1s, and they all have some sort of special significance whether it was the songwriters I wrote it with or the idea where it came from, but certainly this 21^st No. 1 with BRELAND and Hardy would be pretty special for me because of the collaboration,” adds Dierks (see audio below). “I love Hardy. He’s obviously had a lot of success, a lot of No. 1s as a singer as well as a songwriter. But for BRELAND, I believe this would be his very first No. 1 as an artist and as a songwriter. So, to be part of that history is so special for me and just personally as a friend of BRELAND’s – no one’s more deserving than him to have the success that he’s having. So, this is going to be a great moment to share together on stage accepting the awards that come with a No. 1 record and just can’t wait to see that big smile on his face.”

Dierks Bentley continues to be a dominant voice for the genre with over 6.4 billion streams and 20 No. One hits as his new single “Beers On Me” with BRELAND and HARDY races up the radio charts.

Dierks Bentley is poised to take over the top spot on the country charts with his latest song, “Beers On Me,” which features Hardy and BRELAND.

Dierks says he couldn’t be more thrilled with the collaboration, even though he found out about BRELAND during a break from recording in the studio. “I wrote ‘Beers On Me’ with Hardy and some other people, and I just asked Hardy if he’d take a verse on it. It seemed like a natural song for a duet,” he says. “But the cool thing is I was in the studio working on the third verse, and I took a break, and I was reading an article in the paper about a guy named BRELAND. And it just hit me maybe I should invite this guy in to sing the third verse. And so, I got his number and called him, and he came in the next day. He rewrote the verse entirely – totally different verse – made the song a hundred times better and then sang on it with the most beautiful voice I’ve ever heard. So, it’s just been a really awesome collaboration, totally organic, just kind of a meant-to-be thing, and so excited seeing this song do as well as it has on the radio.”

The Arizona native, who recently announced his Seven Peaks Festival for this year, will launch the summer leg of his BEERS ON ME TOUR June 3rd in Wilmington, North Carolina, with special guests Ashley McBryde and Travis Denning.

Dierks Bentley was inducted into the Music City Walk of Fame on Tuesday (April 5th). He, along with musicians Keb’Mo, Bobby Bare and Connie Smith, were recognized for their contributions to preserving the musical heritage of Nashville with their own star on the Walk of Fame.

Luke Bryan and his wife Caroline, along with NASCAR legend Darryl Waltrip, helped break ground on Williamson Medical Center’s $200 million expansion earlier this week. The project will be the largest renovation to date for the hospital, which has been at its current home on Carothers Parkway since 1986. Luke and Caroline will help raise $50 million dollars via a capital campaign for the reno. Caroline Bryan, who serves as co-chair of the campaign, said her family settled on moving to Franklin when they realized how close their potential new home would be to Williamson Medical Center. “This is where our children were born. This is where their doctors are. This is where my doctors are,” Caroline Bryan tells The Tennessean. “Anything from a routine visit to the ER visits, everybody is just fantastic, and watching this getting ready to expand is so needed. It’s time. It’s exciting.” Luke added, “We get to have a voice to make sure this is the best health care you could ever dream of,” Luke Bryan said.
