FLORIDA GEORGIA LINE BETS ON CANAAN SMITH AS ADDED LAS VEGAS RESIDENCY GUEST

World-class entertainers FLORIDA GEORGIA LINE are introducing Sin City to Music City, as they’ve invited chart-rising singer-songwriter CANAAN SMITH – from their trailblazing music publishing roster on TREE VIBEZ MUSIC – to join their five-nights-only residency inside Zappos Theater at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino this December.

Bringing his road warrior-experience of over 550 shows to FLORIDA GEORGIA LINE LIVE FROM LAS VEGAS, Smith’s notched a bevy of co-penned hits cut by FGL, Jason Aldean, and Cole Swindell, while in the studio working on his own new music. Praised by Rolling Stone as “one of the sharper artists to keep an eye on,” Smith gave fans a taste of what’s to come with his digital smash, “This Night Back,” already racking up over 25 million digital streams and counting.

"I’ve always wanted to tour with FGL and what better place than America’s playground," shares Smith. "Seriously, I’m amped, y’all. I'm gonna make the most out of every minute on that stage. These crowds have no idea what’s comin'."

Smith’s name is also on Big Loud Records and Atlantic Records’ artist MASON RAMSEY’s breakout smash “Famous,” the lead single off his six-track acclaimed FAMOUS EP. The young phenom is a part of the amped bill, as previously announced as the superstar duo’s direct support.

General ticket prices for FLORIDA GEORGIA LINE LIVE FROM LAS VEGAS start at $49, plus applicable tax and fees, and are available now online at ticketmaster.com or in-person at the Planet Hollywood box office. Set for December 1, 5, 7, 8, and 11, all shows begin at 8 p.m.

ABOUT FLORIDA GEORGIA LINE: 
Billboard’s first-ever Trailblazer Award recipients continue to build their ever-expanding empire of innovative artistry and entrepreneurial endeavors throughout their colossal career. With their organically romantic lead single “Simple” surging Country charts, the duo offers a peek at their anticipated fourth studio album. Shattering records on their own accord, FGL’s collaborations have amplified their appeal as the 3X PLATINUM-certified #1 “Meant to Be” with Bebe Rexha leads the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart for the 43rd week – the longest reign overall. The song also becomes FGL’s 15th #1 overall as artists. Exceeding 4.2 billion streams, 31 million tracks, and more than 4.3 million albums sold worldwide, the BMLG Records’ duo became the first Country act to achieve RIAA’s DIAMOND certification (10 million copies sold) for their 11X-PLATINUM breakout “Cruise,” which is the best-selling digital Country single of all time (SoundScan). Since 2012, FGL has earned prestigious honors from the AMAs, ACM Awards, CMA Awards, Billboard Music Awards, and CMT Music Awards, plus left their mark on several chart-crushing songs as writers. The bona fide visionaries have launched their own Old Camp Peach Pecan Whiskey, as well as thriving businesses: FGL HOUSE, meet + greet, Tree Vibez Music, and Tribe Kelley.
