Farm Tour 2023 is sponsored by Bayer, Farmland, Fendt, and Citi.

Since 2009 when the Farm Tour began Luke has granted 78 college scholarships to students from farming families to their local college or university near the tour stops. Over the years event sponsors have donated money, food and resources to the local communities and also nationally. Last year alone Bayer provided one million meals to Feeding America®, Farmland® donated a truckload of protein to local foodbanks in each of the states that hosted the tour and also donated $9,000 to each state’s FFA Association, and Fendt donated $25,000 to the national FFA organization.

Luke wrapped his celebrity judging duties alongside Lionel Richie and Katy Perry on American Idol last week performing his brand new single “But I Got A Beer In My Hand.” The song was written by Chase McGill, Matt Dragstrem, and Geoff Warburton, and was produced by Jeff Stevens and co-produced by Jody Stevens.

The season finale of American Idol takes place this Sunday, and the Top 3 contestants – Megan Danielle, Colin Stough and Iam Tongi – will vie for the sought-after title of “American Idol.” Judge Luke Bryan tells us this season of the singing competition features probably the most talented singers he’s seen so far. He also feels a responsibility to give each of them the best chance possible to make it.

“I think the talent on this year of American Idol is the best we’ve ever had. When I look at our Top 10, any of those kids can go and be massive superstars. And I think it’s really important for us to put these kids in a situation where they want to be in music their whole life and they want to get out there and tour and make all their dreams come true.”

Luke is set to perform his latest single, “But I Got A Beer In My Hand,” in addition to a star-studded line-up, including Keith Urban who will come back to the Idol stage to mentor the finalists and to perform a song of his own. Fellow judges Katy Perry and Lionel Richie will also perform, as well as Lainey Wilson, Jelly Roll, Season 2 stars Clay Aiken and Ruben Studdard, Ellie Goulding, James Blunt, Jazmine Sullivan, Kevin Cronin from REO Speedwagon, Kylie Minogue, Lauren Daigle, Pitbull and TLC, among others.

The American Idol Season 21 finale will air live on Sunday (May 21st) at 8pm ET/7pm CT on ABC.
