Rascal Flatts Announces Summer Tour

Rascal Flatts is taking its stripped-down “Rhythm & Roots Tour” from Las Vegas to stages across the U.S. this summer. The excursion features special guests Kelsea Ballerini and Chris Lane.

The band’s second residency at The Joint at Hard Rock Hotel/Casino wrapped up over the weekend. The guys will be back on the road later this week for a stretch of March-May dates that begins in Palm Harbor, Fla.

The summer tour launches in June in Charlotte, N.C.  

“It’s really important to us that each year our shows are fresh and exciting for our fans,” Jay DeMarcus said. “We put a lot of thought into how to do that this year and mixing it up in Vegas was really fun so we decided to continue with this new change of pace out on the road this summer, so we can share it with more of our fans. We’re really excited to have such great support this year with Kelsea and Chris too, it’s going to be a blast!”
