Jason Aldean kicked off his 2019 "Ride All Night Tour" with Kane Brown and Carly Pearce, playing to two sold-out crowds at Uncasville, Connecticut's Mohegan Sun Arena on Friday and Saturday night (5/3-5/4).

Jason shared, “It was great to get back out on the road with Kane (Brown) and (DJ) Silver, and Carly (Pearce) fit in right off the start. There’s something cool about getting to hangout for two nights in the same town, you get a real feel for who the people are and how hard they want to throw down - two-night-towns always seem to get a little crazier. We’re looking forward to getting to do a couple more of those this summer.”

Jason posted to Instagram on Friday, "Opening night of the Ride All Night Tour is officially in the books! Thanks for comin out to see us at Mohegan Sun. Tomorrow night we do it again."

This week, Aldean's tour plays in Evansville, Indiana's Ford Center on Thursday (5/09), Grand Rapids, Michigan at the Andel Arena on Friday (5/11) and Toledo, Ohio at The Huntington Center on Saturday (5/12).
