JASON ALDEAN REVEALS THE EPIC GIFT HE GAVE KANE BROWN AT THE END OF THEIR TOUR 🛞🎸
During a recent appearance on Taste of Country Nights, Jason Aldean opened up about a long-standing country music tradition — giving special “end-of-tour” gifts to his opening acts. And when it came to Kane Brown, Aldean didn’t hold back.
“You get out there and get to know these guys and see what they’re into and what they like and then kinda figure it out,” Aldean said. “I got Kane a four-wheeler.”
Brown, who opened for Aldean in both 2017 and 2019, clearly made a lasting impression — and the generous gift was Aldean’s way of saying thanks for two unforgettable runs on the road together.
But Kane isn’t the only one who’s been on the receiving end of Aldean’s tour generosity. Over a decade ago, Aldean gave another superstar — Luke Bryan — a pretty impressive parting gift, too.
“When Luke Bryan was out with me, it was kinda the year he blew up — probably 2012 — and I got him a bass boat,” Aldean recalled with a laugh. “He’s one of my best friends and we just had an amazing year out there, and he had just got some property, so I got him a boat.”
A Tradition of Friendship and Country Brotherhood
End-of-tour gifts are more than just country tradition — they’re a reflection of the tight-knit friendships formed on the road. For Aldean, it’s not just about saying goodbye, but about celebrating shared memories, late-night laughs, and the long miles spent chasing the same dream.
Aldean’s Busy Year Ahead
Aldean’s interview comes amid his Full Throttle Tour, which has been a huge success across the country. Due to overwhelming demand, he recently announced that the tour will extend into 2026, featuring Nate Smith, Lanie Gardner, and Dee Jay Silver as openers.
The Georgia native isn’t slowing down anytime soon. He recently released his latest single, “How Far Does a Goodbye Go,” and is set to headline New Year’s Eve Live: Nashville’s Big Bash alongside Lainey Wilson and Bailey Zimmerman.
And next spring, Aldean and Luke Bryan will reunite for a massive co-headlining concert at Sanford Stadium at the University of Georgia on April 25.
“Playing Sanford Stadium in 2013 was one of the biggest highlights of my career,” Aldean said. “I couldn’t be more excited to co-headline it this time with my buddy Luke Bryan.”
He added with a grin, “Luke and I have talked for years about wanting to do another show in Athens, and finally the stars have aligned for us to be able to do it. This one’s gonna be something people haven’t seen before — we promise ya!”
From gifting bass boats and four-wheelers to planning record-breaking stadium shows, Jason Aldean continues to prove that country music isn’t just about the songs — it’s about friendship, loyalty, and a whole lot of horsepower.
