This year’s three-time CMA nominee Jason Aldean returned to his hometown of Macon, GA last night for his third Concert For The Kids charity event at the Macon Coliseum which raised over $620,000 for Beverly Knight Olson Children’s Hospital, Navicent Health. Aldean has now raised nearly $2 million for the region’s only dedicated pediatric facility, serving central and south Georgia that enhances the lives of children through patient care, research and education. Continuing the momentum, the three-time and reigning ACM “Entertainer of the Year” heads back to Nashville to host another capacity crowd at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena for his full-throttle HIGH NOON NEON TOUR.
“There is nothing better than coming back to your hometown for a great cause and Georgia really showed up last night,” said Aldean. “Thanks to Lauren Alaina for helping set the tone and with the community’s support over the last few years we’ve been able to help build an entire new facility for these kids who really need it the most.”
Aldean is only the second Country act in history to score four consecutive chart-toppers on the all-genre Billboard 200 albums chart with his current GOLD certified album REARVIEW TOWN, which follows his six previous LPs that achieved PLATINUM certification or better. The path paved by his wide-open sure-footed approach has defined the genre’s 21st century including more than 15 million total album sales and countless recognition from the GRAMMYs, ACMs, CMAs, BBMAs, People’s Choice Awards and more. He is a perennial live-show favorite for the format as he has headlined the biggest stadiums in the United States and continues to host sold-out crowds on his HIGH NOON NEON TOUR.
