Chase Matthew Found Jason Aldean a ’68 Pontiac on Facebook Marketplace as the Perfect End-of-Tour Gift

Chase Matthew first fulfilled his dream of joining Jason Aldean on the road back in 2024, marking the first time he had ever toured with a major country act. This year, with a growing fanbase, more music and more success under his belt, he got the opportunity to return as direct support for Aldean on the Songs About Us Tour. To commemorate what those opportunities have meant to him, Matthew presented Aldean with the perfect end-of-tour gift.

Just days after the 22-city trek came to a close, the rising country star took to Instagram to show the world what he picked out for his tourmate as a token of appreciation. Since touring with Aldean meant so much to Matthew, he knew this present had to be special and personal.

“Touring with Jason has been a full-circle thing for me…Getting to come back out this year as direct support made it even more special, so I knew I had to get him an end of tour gift that represented how much it meant to me. What the heck do you get a guy that has everything?” Matthew asked himself.  

After “a lot” of thought and brainstorming ideas that didn’t quite work out, he ultimately decided to hunt down a new set of wheels for Aldean that also paid tribute to one of his biggest hits.

“I landed on a vintage hot rod. I knew it had to be a ’68 because of the line in ‘My Kinda Party,’” he explained, referring to the lyrics of the opening verse, “I got the cover off the ’68.”

He continued, “When I found this Pontiac LeMans on Facebook Marketplace (are we surprised?), I knew it was the one. I’ve spent the last couple months getting it dialed in and putting my own touches on it. To me, nothing screams badass country singer and AMERICA quite like a ’68 Pontiac convertible, so here’s to pullin’ the cover of the ’68!”

The “All My Exes” singer ended his caption by expressing his gratitude to Jason Aldean for all the fun, wisdom and valuable experiences he’s shared with him over the years.

“Thank you @jasonaldean for everything you have taught me, and the inspiration you have been to me and my career!”

Chase Matthew’s time on the Songs About Us Tour may have come to a close, but he still has one more show on the calendar with Aldean in 2026. On December 11, he will take the stage at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, where he’ll warm up the crowd ahead of the final stop on Jason Aldean and Luke Bryan’s co-headlining Double Down Tour 2026.
