TAMPA, FL – Acclaimed country band Old Dominion add new dates and cities to their “Make It Sweet Tour.” Expanding on an already stacked schedule, the AEG powered outing adds over 30 cities in six countries throughout the end of summer, fall and winter with big names as special guests like Scotty McCreery and Ryan Hurd. The “Make It Sweet Tour” will stop at Tampa’s Yuengling Center on Friday, November 1, 2019 at 7:00 PM.

Last week, Old Dominion released their deeply personal new song “Some People Do.” The soul baring track, which begs the listener for redemption and second chances, was released following the band’s current single “Make It Sweet” going number one on the Billboard Country Airplay and Mediabase charts.

Old Dominion made their return to Nashville over the weekend with a sold-out performance at Ascend Amphitheater following their performance on the mainstage at Stagecoach Country Music Festival. Click HERE to watch their performance of “Make It Sweet” from the festival!

Last month, Old Dominion won “Group of the Year” at the 54th Annual ACM Awards at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, NV. The award marks the band’s second consecutive win in this category and third ACM Award overall! Click HERE to view! Earlier this week, they were also nominated for “Group Video of the Year” at the upcoming 2019 CMT Music Awards.
