Kane Brown brought his The High Road Tour to Nashville over the weekend for a pair of shows at Bridgestone Arena. The first of the two shows took place on Friday night, when the country superstar was joined by Scotty McCreery and Dasha for a hit-packed show filled with star power and memorable moments.
Brown took the stage a little after 9pm with “I Am,” a track from his recently released The High Road album. Surprising fans by appearing in the middle of his massive half-oval-shaped catwalk, Brown was welcomed by a roar of applause that echoed around the packed venue.

Setting the scene for a fiery night ahead, Brown lit up the stage with “Start a Fire” as red and orange lights flashed around him — and real flames erupted to match the heat of the performance.
The crowd erupted as Brown rolled into “Fiddle in the Band” and “Like I Love Country Music,” but the energy hit a whole new level when Lauren Alaina stepped on stage to join him for their chart-topping duet, “What Ifs.”
Alaina proudly showed off her baby bump as she danced across the catwalk. After the performance, she and Brown shared a heartfelt hug as he sweetly acknowledged that she’ll soon be welcoming a little one.

Brown slowed things down for the middle portion of the show with a touching rendition of “Homesick” which was sweetly dedicated to the men and women serving in the military.
A highlight of the show was the stirring performance of “Haunted” which found the superstar sitting high above the stage on a rafter surrounded by giant flames appearing to burn the screens behind him. The visuals on this tour are unmatched and his moment was certainly an example of that.

Later, Brown was joined by his band at the front of the catwalk, getting up close and personal with the fans on the floor. It was then that he got real, opening up about how much their support truly means to him.
“Honestly, being in Nashville and all y’all here, I feel like I get overlooked a little bit and y’all, make that not happen,” he shared. “I never talk about myself. I want to let y’all know that there’s 12 diamond singles in country music and y’all got me two of them. God bless you guys.”

Other highlights of the night included his heartfelt duets with wife Katelyn, an all-star performance of “Says I Can” with Dasha and Scotty McCreery, and a high-octane three-song encore that sent the energy inside Bridgestone Arena soaring with “Bury Me In Georgia,” “One Thing Right,” and “Miles On It.”
Once again, Kane Brown has delivered an unforgettable show that raises the bar for live performances in country music. From the incredible stage production to the emotional moments with fans, The High Road Tour offers an experience like no other.
The High Road Tour launched on March 13, 2025 in San Diego, CA and will wrap in Gilford, NH on May 25.
