Earlier this year, Thomas Rhett crossed a big item off of his bucket list, when he sold out Fenway Park. Now, fans all over the world can capture some of that night, thanks to his new Thomas Rhett Live From Fenway Park EP, out now.
“It was surreal,” Rhett said on Country Countdown USA, after the historic evening. “I’ve had a couple bucket list things, and this was one of them. It took me a while to come down from the high of Fenway. It was completely sold out, 35,000 people. It was just a dream.”

Thomas Rhett Writes a Letter to Boston After Selling Out Fenway Park
After Rhett sold out the iconic venue, he wrote a letter to Boston, revealing how much the evening meant to him.
“Too many memories to count,” Rhett wrote. “Some I remember vividly, and some are foggy, for reasons I’m sure you can imagine. Pretty sure I’ve played most every venue that this town has to offer — from the House of Blues to my first ever tour opening for Toby Keith at the Xfinity Center, to the home of the Patriots opening for my buddy Kenny Chesney. I’ve opened in this building twice for Jason Aldean, and I also got to witness a masterpiece performance by the one and only Kid Rock. To arguably my favorite show I’ve ever played here, which was two years ago over at TD Garden. And to cap all that off, getting to headline here tonight for my very first time alongside my brother Teddy Swims is a moment that I cannot explain to you.
“I’ve drank most of your beers at a bar, most of your bars out of beer. I’ve eaten my weight in lobster rolls,” he continued. “Tried and failed every time to get a reservation at Neptune Oyster. Thrown my guts up on a whale-watching tour. And, attended my fair share of Red Sox games. Needless to say, this place has always been and always will be one of my favorite places to play on the planet. I have a lot of history in this city and I love y’all so much.”
