Ten years after signing his record deal with Big Machine Label Group’s The Valory Music Co., arena-packing superstar Thomas Rhett has 21 No. One singles, 15 BILLION streams and the longest current active streak of consecutive No. One’s in the format (Mediabase/Country Aircheck Chart). His most recent sixth studio album, WHERE WE STARTED “practically demands an open field, tens-of-thousands-strong throng of fans in front of it” (Esquire). Declared “a prince in the genre” (USA Today), he has been honored with eight ACM Awards including Entertainer of the Year, two CMA Awards, five GRAMMY® Awards nominations, plus trophies from the CMT Music Awards, Billboard Awards and iHeartRadio Awards, in addition to being recognized with five CMA Triple Play awards for penning three No. One songs within a 12-month period. The hitmaker has also launched a tequila brand, Dos Primos, now offering Blanco, Reposado, and Añejo variants. For more information, visit www.ThomasRhett.com.
“When the Open Class Beef barn burned down in October 2020, our motto became, ‘out of adversity, comes opportunity’, and that opportunity, along with a lot of hard work, has helped us discover the DEX,” said DANR Secretary Hunter Roberts. “To be here today, announcing superstar Thomas Rhett as our DEXtravaganza headliner is truly amazing. I am so proud of what we have accomplished, and I can’t wait to celebrate with everyone who helped bring this vision to life!”
