PHOENIX – Country music star Dierks Bentley will bring his latest tour to the place where he was born, the Valley, in the summer.

Bentley’s Beers on Me tour will stop at Ak-Chin Pavilion near 83rd Avenue and McDowell Road in Phoenix on Aug. 27. He’ll be joined by Riley Green and Parker McCollum.

“I wrote a song a few months back with some friends called ‘Beers On Me’ that inspired this year’s tour name,” Bentley said in a press release announcing the tour.

“It’s a pretty simple recipe for summer – get your friends together, have a round or two and dive into some great country music. That’s exactly what Riley, Parker and I plan on doing out there on the road with our fans.”

Tickets go on sale to the general public Friday at 10 a.m. Arizona time.

Presales for Citi credit cardholders begin Tuesday at 10 a.m. Arizona time.

The Phoenix-born Bentley hit it big in 2003 and has become one of the industry’s most popular country stars.

The singer/songwriter, who lives in Nashville, Tennessee, has maintained ties to the Valley through the popular restaurant chain that bears his name – Dierks Bentley’s Whiskey Row in Gilbert and Old Town Scottsdale.

We want to hear from you.
