If the world ever needed a little more Lee Greenwood, it is now. And the world will get much of the country music legend in 2022 when Greenwood goes on his 40 Years of Hits tour in January.
“This announcement is just the beginning of a record year for us,” said Greenwood, who shares the big news exclusively with Taste of Country. “I haven’t done such a big tour in many years; usually it’s one or two in a row and back home. On this tour I will perform in places from small to large, from trade fairs to festivals and everything in between. “
The “God Bless the USA” hitmaker has seen some sort of career boom lately as the country continues to grapple with our differences while trying to come together as proud members of that nation for an almost safe spot on Greenwood’s setlist.
But even more, the 40 Years of Hits Tour focuses on the numerous hits that have made Greenwood the artist he is today. With more than twenty top 10 singles including “It Turns Me Inside Out,” “Ring on Her Finger, Time on Her Hands,” and “She’s Lyin ‘”, Greenwood has a number of Grammy, CMA awards over the years – and won ACM awards. Add that to your work as a philanthropist, chances are this tour will become one of the feel-good events of 2022.
Earlier this year, Greenwood’s contributions to country music were recognized during the All-Star Salute to Lee Greenwood, which brought together stars such as Michael Ray, Lee Brice and the Oak Ridge Boys at the Von Braun Center in Huntsville to praise the country singer -Songwriter’s illustrious career.
