Good news, Thomas Rhett fans! After selling out the first Nashville show on his Home Team Tour, the singer has added a second show. Rhett will now perform on September 30 at Bridgestone Arena as well, wrapping up the tour with two back-to-back shows in Music City.
“It’s always a dream come true to play your hometown,” Rhett says. “But getting to play the arena two nights in a row is going to be one of those things I tell my grandkids about one day.”
Rhett also shared the good news on social media.

The 33-year-old kicks off his Home Team Tour on May 4 in Des Moines, Iowa. Cole Swindell and Nate Smith will seve as Swindel’s opening acts.
“Being on the road is one of my favorite places to be,” Rhett said when announcing the tour. “I can’t wait to see the joy on y’alls faces next year and with my buddies Cole Swindell and Nate Smith. We’re definitely gonna have a good time.”
There was a time when Rhett’s biggest dreams were to be able to live off of his career in music, never imagining he would sell millions of albums and have 20 No. 1 singles.
“2012 when I was playing 600 shows a year, and Lauren [Akins] was with me on the tour bus with nine other dudes, it felt like we were never going to get out of that,” Rhett admits to BMLG. “And my wife, being like, ‘Man, how many times have we been to Wisconsin this year?’ I wake up now, and we have four children. So much has changed in my career from success to bigger rooms, to getting to do neat collaborations with people.”
Rhett is back in the Top 20 again, this time with “Angels,” a song he wrote about Akins. The song is from his Where We Started record.
“This is my favorite song from the album. I wrote it from a personal perspective, but I think it will resonate with a lot of people,” Rhett says. “It’s about how none of us are perfect, and how lucky we are to have those people in our lives who show up and love us despite our flaws. I often look at my wife and think she’s truly an angel, for the love and grace she shows me every single day.”
Tickets for Rhett’s second Nashville show will be on sale on Friday, April 28 at 10:00 AM local time. Find all of Rhett’s music and tour dates at at ThomasRhett.com.
