When Pat Green released his major label debut album Three Days in 2001, it introduced the singer-songwriter to a national audience, with its follow-up, 2003's Wave on Wave, raising his profile even higher via the hit title track. But in his native Texas, Green was already a star, adored by a dedicated fan base built by playing the dancehall circuit and respected by fellow musicians. Now, some of the artists he influenced are saluting the Lone Star State hero on Dancehall Dreamin': A Tribute to Pat Green.
Due April 5th – Green's 46th birthday – the record features renditions of his songs from artists like Jack Ingram, Josh Abbott Band and Aaron Watson. Randy Rogers Band performs the title track to Green's essential Three Days, enlisting Radney Foster – who co-wrote the song about the grueling life of a touring musician with Green – for an assist.

Kip Moore, Randy Rogers and Wade Bowen will hit the road together for a limited run this December as part of a special solo acoustic stint dubbed "Tall Tales and the Truth Tour." The songwriters will take the stage together each night, performing and sharing the intimate stories behind their songs, for a one-of-a-kind experience. Kicking off in Denver, CO on Thurs., Dec. 7, they will stop in Lincoln, NE (12.8), Washington D.C. (12.13) and wrap in New York City on Thurs., Dec. 14.
"This is something Randy and I have been cooking up for a while," says Moore. "We've always had a great camaraderie, and a similar mantra, and so we thought it might be a cool way to share our stories in a more intimate setting with our fans. We did a show with Wade and mentioned the idea and then it all fell into place."
"This tour with Kip is long overdue," says Rogers. "We were label mates for years and have been talking about doing a tour together for a while. Adding lil' buddy Wade Bowen to the mix just seemed like a natural fit. Guaranteed good times -- both on stage and off."
Tickets will go on sale this Fri., Oct. 27.
