Then he will head North to Memphis where Hoge will give fans an insiders view of Sam Phillips Recording studio and stop at the legendary Sun Records. While in town, Lucas will perform an intimate set for fans at famed Lafayette Music Room. Later in the month he will head to the top of Southern landmark Lookout Mountain, set against the breathtaking backdrop, fans will have a view of seven southern states from the peak. Hoge will also be performing a pop up concert in the iconic French Quarter in New Orleans, as well as taking fans on a walking tour of the one of a kind city. “Music has taken me all over the world from Afghanistan and Germany to Canada just to name a few,” said Hoge. “The Dirty South tour is all about these cool, historic and amazing places right here on US soil. There’s something really fulfilling about performing at these iconic southern destinations — it almost feels like we’re sharing a little piece of why this country is so great.” Comfortable on stages small or grand, he has opened for everyone from George Jones and Hank Williams Jr., to Luke Bryan, Dierks Bentley and Rascal Flatts. Hoge is currently being featured as NRA’s Artist of the Month and was recently named one of the “10 New Country Artists You Need To Know” by Rolling Stone Country. With his title track for DIRTY SOUTH spinning on radio stations from Albany, New York to Orlando, Florida, Hoge has much to celebrate. He will announce a second round of Dirty South dates in the coming weeks. Hoge’s new album DIRTY SOUTH is available here. For a complete list of tour dates log onto: www.lucashoge.com
