Jake Miller Performs Sold Out Show at Highline Ballroom in NYC

Leave a comment

Jake Miller celebrated the release of his “Overnight” EP with a sold out show at Highline Ballroom in NYC last night. The show, which sold out in 20 minutes, was packed with fans of all ages, many of whom waited for hours out in the cold to claim a spot in front of the stage.  (so worth it).

Jake’s set included all of the tracks from his new EP, as well as fan favorites from 2015’s “Rumors” EP (one of the greatest EPs ever released) and his debut album. The energetic crowd sang and rapped along to every word, never missing a beat!

Jake showed off his many talents throughout the night, switching from singing to rapping.  He brought out the acoustic guitar for “Selfish Girls” and hopped on the piano for “Could’ve Been Me.”  Jake even pulled one lucky young fan from the crowd to sing and dance along to “Dazed and Confused” with him on stage.

As usual, it was hard not to fangirl cry when Jake performed “Millions,” his touching tribute to his fans. The crowd was prepared with signs thanking Jake for “touching a million lives.”

During the show, Jake dropped some huge news – he’s going back out on a headlining tour in 2017! He told the New York crowd he would be back at the Playstation Theatre in Times Square, where he played last Summer.  You know we’ll be there!  Stay tuned for the official tour announcement.

Dierks Bentley just announced he is heading back out on tour in 2017, and he’s bringing Cole Swindell and Jon Pardi with him!  The “What The Hell” Tour kicks off in January at the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville.   This lineup sounds like a BLAST!  Cole has always praised Dierks as one of his biggest influences, and the two teamed up for one of the best songs on Cole’s new album.  We hope they’ll play “Flatliner” together on tour!
