Multiple JUNO and CCMA Award winners Dean Brody and Paul Brandt are thrilled to announce the launch of their co-headlining tour – Road Trip Tour (#roadtriptour). Bringing together the best in Canadian country music, this epic Road Trip Tour will kick-off in Victoria on Sept. 24 and visit 21 cities across Canada before wrapping-up in Halifax. The artist pre-sale will run from 10 a.m. on Tuesday, April 21, through 10 p.m. on Thursday, April 23, or while supplies last. Tickets go on-sale to the general public on Friday, April 24, at 10 a.m. via Capital Tickets.

There is no question that these two are a force to be reckoned with. With a list of awards and accolades a country mile long, Brandt is recognized as the most awarded male Canadian country artist in history; Brody, the No. 1 most played Canadian country artist on radio. Brody also recently took home Country Album of the Year at both the 2014 CCMA and JUNO Awards. It is difficult to argue that there are any bigger names in Canadian country music today.

Brody and Brandt share commonalities beyond the scope of their success in country music, making the decision to partner on a national tour an easy one. Both were born in Western Canada and were raised with strong family values – a common thread that is clear not only in how they conduct themselves (including a deep investment and commitment to those in need) but a dominating force in their songs.

They both set off for Nashville early in their careers, which proved to be a defining time for each of them. As a result, both continue to hold the rich history found in Nashville close to their hearts by still actively writing and recording there.

“Dean and I are both deeply proud of our Canadian roots,” says Brandt. “Touring our country together this fall allows us to engage with both sets of fans and celebrate the heritage of country music that inspired our careers.”

“Canada has the greatest fans in the world,” adds Brody. “We are truly excited to bring our two styles together and create an unforgettable experience for them.”

Brody and Brandt will be joined on tour by four unique female artists who will open in different markets – Lindi Ortega, CCMA winner Jess Moskaluke, Madeline Merlo and Whitney Rose who will open the tour in Ottawa.

In addition to the tour, both are busy with their latest music. Today, Brody released his fifth studio album Gypsy Road. The record covers huge emotional terrain, reflects Brody’s time living in different parts of the country and features the top 10 single Upside Down.

In March, Brandt released his latest single Nothing, which recently hit No. 30 on the Canadian Artists chart. Nothing joins two hit singles this past year – Forever Summer and Get a Bed.
