FLORIDA GEORGIA LINE SLIDES INTO HOLIDAY WEEKEND WITH “SMOOTH” ESCAPE TO PARADISE ON NBC’s TODAY
Following a landmark summer filled with a headline-worthy trifecta of first-ever sold-out stadium stops, recording-breaking top-shelf entertainers FLORIDA GEORGIA LINE set the tone for an easy-breezy holiday weekend with current BMLG Records single “Smooth” on NBC’s TODAY with Kathie Lee & Hoda this morning (9/1).
Throwing the ultimate end-of-summer beach party, FGL and morning co-hosts Kathie Lee Gifford and Hoda Kotb vibed to the down-home jam, “Smooth,” featuring the superstar duo’s effortless country swagger. Closing out the morning with their #1, PLATINUM-certified smash “May We All,” Kotb even joined Tyler Hubbard on a little air guitar, while Gifford swayed next to Brian Kelley.

On Wednesday (8/30), the MULTI-PLATINUM showstoppers appeared on CMT, alongside their THE SMOOTH STADIUM TOUR 2017 buddies Backstreet Boys, for CMT Crossroads. FGL’s Nashville-based four-tier premiere restaurant and entertainment destination, FGL HOUSE, hosted a public viewing party with a special VIP experience benefiting the American Red Cross Hurricane Harvey relief efforts.
After kicking off THE SMOOTH TOUR 2017 in Dallas and Austin in the spring, FGL is continuing to raise awareness in support of those impacted by this devastating storm. A portion of proceeds from their two-night run in Gilford, NH, this weekend (9/1-2), will aid American Red Cross along with additional local organizations. The American Red Cross’ New Hampshire Chapter will also be on-site both nights.
THE SMOOTH TOUR 2017 will roll on with Nelly and Chris Lane – plus Ryan Hurd, Morgan Wallen, and Russell Dickerson on select dates – wrapping with a two-night stand at Verizon Amphitheatre in Alpharetta, Georgia, on October 20 – 21.
