General-public tickets for Rhett go on sale 10 a.m. Friday at ThomasRhett.com. Rhett’s "Better with Boots Tour" commences June 5 in Rogers, Arkansas, and concludes Sept. 26 in Ridgefield, Washington.
Rhett last performed on Long Island on July 22, 2023, when his "Home Team Tour" came to Elmont's UBS Arena.
“So pumped to announce the BETTER IN BOOTS TOUR 2025!!" Rhett, 34, son of country crooner Rhett Akins, wrote on Instagram. “Can’t wait to hit the road next summer with @tuckerwetmore, @thecastellows & @dashamusic!" he added, mentioning the sister trio The Castellows, who will appear as an opener on the dates when Dasha does not.
“Oh brother this is gonna be a party," Wetmore commented on the post.
Multiplatinum singer-songwriter Rhett first reached the Billboard Country Airplay Chart in 2015 with two No. 1 singles, "Crash and Burn" and the best country song Grammy nominee "Die a Happy Man." He since has amassed 18 more Country Airplay chart toppers, with two songs additionally reaching No. 1 on the main Billboard Hot Country Songs chart.
He recently released his seventh studio album, “About a Woman," a paean to his wife, childhood friend Lauren Gregory Akins, with whom he has four children.
The five-time Grammy nominee was a guest performer on this year’s season 25 finale of the NBC singing competition “The Voice" and had been an adviser to Kelly Clarkson’s team in season 15.
His most recent country hits include “Angels Don't Always Have Wings" and “Half of Me" (featuring Riley Green). In 2020, Rhett and Carrie Underwood became the first Entertainer of the Year co-winners in the more than half-century history of the Academy of Country Music Awards.
