Chris Young posted on his social media today (8/24) that because of a case of COVD in his band, he has to cancel his upcoming shows in the United Kingdon.
Young posted to Instagram, "This week started off incredibly with my 13th #1 single for 'At The End Of A Bar' and plans to tour in the UK, but unfortunately COVID has hit my band, and we are forced to cancel the shows in Glasgow, Manchester, Bristol, London, and the Long Road Festival."
He added, "I am excited to play all the new music from 'Famous Friends' for fans in the UK, and we will update you soon on plans to reschedule the run of shows."
One fan familiar with the effects of COVID commented, "I hope y'all get well. Rest up, lots of liquid, Zinc, potassium, and vitamin C. That was my cocktail to wellness when I was hospitalized 3 months with it. Prayers to healing. God speed!"
The shift from Cowboy hats to baseball caps has been years in coming but ball hats now outnumber the "Hat" acts in country music.
While some acts like Jason Aldean still don the cowboy hat before taking the stage (although he also rocks a cap, as you'll see in this gallery), many of country music's superstars prefer to take the stage like a baseball player, with hat front or even the backward ball cap look.
Here, we take a look at some of country music's hottest men donning baseball caps.
