Sam Hunt Is ‘Holding Tight And Sticking To The Plan’ To Tour

Author Nancy Brooks // Country Writer, Beasley Media Group

Sam Hunt has pushed back his “Southside Summertime 2020” tour to kick off in June because of the coronavirus. He released his album a week ago (4/3) and is itching to get out to play songs for fans.

Sam told us, “It’s our livelihood and I have a big crew. I have a band and a big crew that helps us put these shows on. We’re all staffed up and ready to go this year and I certainly want to look out for them and make sure everybody’s eating, you know, because these are uncertain times. A lot of people are getting laid off and a lot of people are having a hard time finding work.”

He adds, “It’s hard to work when you can’t leave the house. So we’re just holding tight and sticking to the plan, hoping this thing clears up and, you know, we’ll do what we have to do until the end.”

Nancy Brooks has been working in the country music industry for almost 30 years. She has interviewed pretty much any country star you can think of. In the late 1990s, she started working with Dolly Parton. And yes, Nancy reports that Parton is as sweet as you would think. She loves her life in country music and has been backstage at every CMA Awards show since the late 1990s. Many of her stories are from her one-on-one interviews. She was there at the beginning of the incredible careers of many music superstars today, including Taylor Swift, Shania Twain, and Blake Shelton, and has interviewed them multiple times throughout the years.
