Nelly to Headline Lil Bit of Music Series
Three-time Grammy Winner Nelly transcends genres with a full band Concert Series featuring Jimmie Allen and Blanco Brown
This Fall, Grammy award winning artist Nelly sets out on TWO incredible LIVE CONCERT series where he will headline 30+ Country inspired music concerts with some of the genre’s rising stars including Blanco Brown and Jimmie Allen! Coming off of his continued success in Country music with new hits like Cool Again with Kane Brown, Good Times Roll with Jimmie Allen and Lil Bit with Florida Georgia Line, Nelly is ready to bring an incredibly rare experience to the road as he travels with a FULL BAND for the FIRST TIME along with some of Country Music’s biggest names and a production that can best be described as “MUST SEE”!
Nelly
Nelly, the multi-platinum, three-time Grammy winning artist and four-time AMA award winning entertainer is embarking on a first-of-its-kind experience this Fall showcasing the on-stage fusion of country, hip hop, rap, and R&B with a distinctly “rock n’ roll” presentation. Nelly will be traveling with a full live band as well as a multi-million-dollar production along with some of country music’s biggest rising stars on two separate series featuring Blanco Brown and then Jimmie Allen.
This unique production stems from the celebration of Nelly’s 20-year anniversary of the RIAA certified Diamond record “Country Grammar” earlier this year when fans were gifted with the digital release of a LIVE, full band production of the complete album, not to mention his continued commercial success in country music. Whether fans are attending to party with the classics or bask in his most recent hits like Cool Again with Kane Brown, Good Times Roll with Jimmie Allen and Lil Bit with Florida Georgia Line, Nelly is ready to shake up the live music scene with this show that is sure to have a lil bit of something for everybody.
Jimmie Allen
The second Lil Bit of Music Series will feature Nelly and Jimmie Allen. Multi-platinum recording artist and songwriter Jimmie Allen has been blazing trails since the beginning of his breakout career. He made history as the first Black artist to launch a career with two consecutive No. 1 hits off his 2018 debut album Mercury Lane (which The New York Times dubbed as one of 2018’s strongest) – the first being his debut single “Best Shot,” which claimed the No. 1 spot on Country radio for three weeks, and second being “Make Me Want To.” In July 2020, Allen released his star-studded collaboration project Bettie James that has since garnered 155+ million streams and a slew of critical acclaim for the music, the historic nature of various collaborations, and its subsequent place in country music history.
Blanco Brown
The first Lil Bit of Music Series will feature Nelly and Blanco Brown, which fans can expect to see more than a dozen dates throughout the month of October. Blanco is a fellow pioneer of hip hop and country fusion. The Atlanta born, platinum selling artist and creative visionary known for his #1 hit singles “The Git Up” and “Just the way” with the band Parmalee, has coined his unique sound as “Trailer Trap”. Brown brings soul and a sincere and playful energy to the stage, along with an underlying message (as titled in his most recent single ) - “Nobody’s More Country” than anyone else.
