The Cole Swindell concert tonight at Rupp Arena was an unforgettable experience. Opener Logan Crosby set the tone with an energetic performance, followed by Priscilla Block, crushing her set and hyping the whole crowd up, both who later returned to the stage for a heartfelt duet with Cole during his main set. Swindell was extremely interactive with the crowd, which ranged from young kids to longtime country fans, making everyone feel part of the show. His setlist blended fan-favorite hits, brand-new releases, and even snippets of classic ’90s country, keeping the energy high throughout the night. The visuals and lighting effects were top-notch, adding an extra layer of excitement to an already dynamic performance. Above all, Cole’s genuine gratitude and repeated thanks to the audience made the concert feel personal and memorable.

About Cole Swindell (from official press release):

Country music superstar and multi-award winner Cole Swindell released new music from his upcoming fifth studio album, Spanish Moss, for Warner Music Nashville including his current Top 10 and rising radio single “Forever To Me,” and most recently the digital-only releases of “Spanish Moss,” “Kill A Prayer,” “One Day” and “3 Feet Tall,” which Country Now called a “Song of the Year contender” and “one of the most important songs Cole Swindell has ever released.” Spanish Moss will be available June 27.

Swindell, who Rolling Stone has called “a proven hit-maker,” charted three back-to-back, Platinum-certified, multi-week No. 1 hits off his fourth studio album, Stereotype: “Single Saturday Night,” “Never Say Never” (with Lainey Wilson) and the five-week 3x Platinum chart-topper “She Had Me At Heads Carolina” that garnered three ACM Awards for Single of the Year and Song of the Year (as songwriter and artist), an iHeart Music Award for Country Song of the Year and received a nomination for Musical Event of the Year for “She Had Me At Heads Carolina” with Jo Dee Messina for the 57th CMA Awards. He released a special duet remix of his smash “She Had Me At Heads Carolina” featuring Messina that has produced multiple award nominations and is included on his deluxe album Stereotype Broken, which also includes his 2023 Top 10 single “Drinkaby.” Swindell, who The Tennessean called a “hard charging competitor armed with a mastery of the art of the craft, tirelessly looking for ways to improve his work” has solidified himself as a hit songwriter, recording artist and headlining performer over the past eleven years. He has racked up 12 No. 1 singles as an artist – 13 as a songwriter.

The Georgia native just returned from his first international tour dates in March opening for Cody Johnson’s Leather Deluxe Tour in Australia and New Zealand. Swindell will launch his 2025 headlining Happy Hour Sad Tour in September.

About Priscilla Block (from official press release):

Country artist Priscilla Block draws listeners in with her unfiltered, relatable songwriting, and catchy melodies. Her honest and up-front approach promotes self-love, empowerment, and acceptance through her own blend of country pop and southern rock, dubbed “the Block Party sound.” Priscilla has cemented her place in country music with her rabid fan base and unmitigated honesty in songs, helping her earn recognitions from the Academy of Country Music (New Female Artist of the Year nomination), CMT Awards (Breakthrough Video of the Year), The New York Times (Best Albums of 2022), and more. Fan-favorite hits include “Just About Over You,” “My Bar,” “Good On You,” and Platinum-certified No. 1 “You, Me, and Whiskey” with country star Justin Moore. Priscilla’s latest release “Yard Sale” is out now with more new music to come this year.

About Logan Crosby (from official press release):

Picture a fresh voice in music that feels like a warm, nostalgic drive through small-town GA, with a sound that’s equal parts soulful storytelling and modern grit. Logan Crosby’s the real deal—a Milledgeville native who grew up soaking in the vibes of legends, while finding his own lane. He’s got that rare knack for spinning personal experiences into songs that hit you right in the chest—think heartbreak, first loves, and sneaking into bars with your buddies, all wrapped up in a voice that’s raw, honest, and impossible to ignore.

This isn’t just some TikTok fluke, though that’s where he first caught fire—Logan’s a legit talent who’s already turned heads as the runner-up on ABC’s Claim to Fame, revealing his roots as Jason Aldean’s cousin. But he’s no nepotism story. Since his breakout single “Run Away With You” dropped in 2023, he’s been building a loyal fanbase. September 2024 brought about the release of his debut album 2019, and he continues to release new music.
