Breland shared a heartfelt moment with his father on stage during a recent show.
The Cross Country star wrote “Old Man” for his dad, and brought his dad on stage with him to perform the ballad at the historic Ryman Auditorium in Downtown Nashville, Tennessee. It happened during the third annual BRELAND & Friends fundraising event on March 26, which also featured performances by Avery Anna, Caitlyn Smith, Chase Rice, Dalton Dover, Drake White, Josh Groban, The War and Treaty, and Walker Hayes, among others.
“This is easily one of my most special moments of my life and career, and if you're wondering whether I made it to the end of the song without breaking down crying, the answer is absolutely NOT 😭😭😭 I was a complete wreck as soon as he started singing, but that's just how I am about my Dad 🙏🏾🖤,” Breland wrote in a caption on Instagram as he shared a video from the BRELAND & Friends performance on Monday evening (April 1).
Breland’s Ryman Auditorium fundraising event kicked off his headlining “Little More Countrier Tour,” bringing his “infectious mix of Country, Hip-Hop and Soul to major cities all across the Midwest, Northeast and more, filling each venue with stadium-sized energy (and a thousand-watt smile),” per a press release issued to announce the tour in February. Brelant has since posted additional “Little More Countrier Tour” dates to include west coast destinations. Tickets to the newly-announced shows during the second phase of Breland's tour will go on sale on Friday (April 5) at 10 a.m. local time. See his upcoming tour stops below.
