The album’s title track features a reunion with Ella Langley, who also collaborated with Green on 2024’s “You Look Like You Love Me.” Langley is slated to join Green in Regina along with fellow special guests Jake Worthington and Erik Dylan.

The general on-sale begins this Friday (rileygreenmusic.com).

“I learned to play guitar to my granddaddy’s favorite country songs from back in the day and the new album is a throwback to the era when I first became a fan,” Green said in a media release from promoter Live Nation. “For this tour I was able to find some of my favorite artists and songwriters to join us, and singing with Ella every night will be a lot of fun.”

Green received the new male artist-of-the-year award from the Academy of Country Music in 2019. He is known for songs like There Was This Girl, I Wish Grandpas Never Died, Different ‘Round Here (with Luke Combs), Half of Me (with Thomas Rhett), If It Wasn’t for Trucks, Worst Way, and Hell of a Way to Go.

Meanwhile, it was also announced Wednesday that Canadian rock band Our Lady Peace is coming to SaskTel Centre in Saskatoon on Feb. 27 as part of its 30th anniversary tour.
