Live Nation Press Release

Today, multi-Platinum singer/songwriter Dierks Bentley announced his summer “Gravel & Gold” tour, presented by Jersey Mike’s, with a date at Darien Lake Amphitheater in Darien Center on July 20, produced by Live Nation.

Ticket information will be announced soon at Dierks.com.

“The ‘Gravel & Gold’ tour has been the best of my career, and I’m not ready to leave it behind,” Bentley said. “We are so locked in with this production that it allows me to be living right in the moment with the fans, and that’s the magic! I’m bringing along some old friends and some newer artists who are all putting their own unique spin on country, bluegrass and Americana music. I can’t wait to watch their shows and hopefully sing with them, too. Those collaborations are a highlight of my summer every year.”

”Bentley’s one-of-a-kind live show is 'an unforgettable experience’ ” (Folio Weekly), full of hits, one-of-a-kind bluegrass moments and impromptu collaborations.

“It’s clear that Bentley isn’t just an award-winning singer and songwriter but also a natural entertainer," Nippertown wrote, “(It) will have you trying to catch your breath from singing and laughing along." 

Bentley released his 10th studio album, “Gravel & Gold,” in 2023, again “proving why he’s one of Country’s biggest stars” (NBC’s “Today”) whose unique 21st-century career has had a rare consistency fueled by longevity. He landed his first publishing deal in 2001 and released his debut album in 2003, producing an instant No. 1 single. In the two decades since, Bentley has achieved success with eight more albums that reached the top of the country sales charts, resulting in 22 No. 1 songs, 8 billion streams, three CMA Awards, 15 Grammy nominations and membership into the Grand Ole Opry.

Trendy sounds have ebbed and flowed around him over these two decades, but Bentley “has been a mainstay on the country charts since releasing his debut single ‘What Was I Thinkin’ nearly 20 years ago,” (Forbes). He also has created professional endeavors outside of music with his Flag & Anthem lifestyle collection Desert Son, along with his four “Dierks Bentley’s Whiskey Row” locations.
