Jason Aldean’s 2020 We Back Tour has been postponed.

The “Got What I Got” singer shared the news with fans on Wednesday and promised that he’s going to do his best to make next year’s tour memorable.

“We’re making the call to postpone my WE BACK TOUR until 2021. The health and safety of my fans, my band and crew and all the local workers in your town who help pull off our shows each night is something we’re not going to gamble on,” he wrote in a statement to fans. “I can promise you we’ll get you new dates as soon as we can and that me and the boys will be back next year bigger and louder than ever.”

The second leg of Aldean’s tour was scheduled to kick off in July and feature Brett Young, Mitchell Tenpenny and Dee Jay Silver.

Fans can stay tuned to Jason Aldean’s official website regarding the newly scheduled dates.

Aldean is just one of many artists who shared plans to either cancel or postpone their 2020 tours this week amid the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
