Country hitmaker Brantley Gilbert just announced a brand new world tour!

Dubbed “The Black Out Tour” Gilbert’s new headlining trek will hit the U.S., Canada, UK, Germany, the Netherlands and Australia starting November 11. Joining Gilbert on the tour are newcomers Canaan Smith and Michael Ray.

“If you’re gonna take it on the road, do it,” the Georgia native said in a release to the press. “If you’re gonna push the music, don’t be afraid to put it out there. People around the world get the idea about what we do: these songs are about living life in hard places, but standing up when you do. That’s a universal thing, so let’s do it.”

The tour kicks off later this month in Amsterdam, and the singer-songwriter couldn’t be more ready to take his live show overseas. “Music is music,” he explained. “I don’t care what you call it, as long as you let me play it my way. I know where these songs came from, what they mean, how they played out – and that is how me and the boys try to bring’em.”

Tickets for Gilbert’s Black Out Tour go on sale starting Friday, Nov. 6.
