Dierks Bentley has much bigger touring plans in store for 2021 than a handful of dive bar dates in May. The 2021 Beers on Me Tour will begin on Aug. 13 and take the “Gone” singer through early fall.
Parker McCollum and Riley Green will join Bentley on tour, with Mitchell Tenpenny filling in a few times during a 22-show run that wraps in Rogers, Ark., on Oct. 22. The Beers on Me Tour was named after a song called “Beers on Me” that he wrote in late 2020 or early 2021. The singer describes it as a simple recipe for summer.
Previously, Bentley announced a five-date High Times and Hangovers Tour, starting May 11 in South Carolina and ending on May 15 in Knoxville, Tenn. There are plenty of additional festival dates on his official touring calendar, beginning with the Telluride Bluegrass Festival in June. As of now, his own Seven Peaks Festival has not been announced to return in 2021. After two years, the fest was paused in 2020 because of the pandemic.
A full list of Bentley’s 2021 Beers on Me Tour dates is below. To introduce the tour, the “I Wish Grandpas Never Died” singer and “Pretty Heart” singer joined him for a cover of Jerry Reed’s “East Bound and Down.” Tickets for the tour go on sale to the general public May 14.
