Alabama Tickets

Name some of the most influential high-energy Southern Rock and country bands and you know a band like Alabama must come to mind.

It's been 50 years since Alabama cousins left Fort Payne, to play at Myrtle beach, South Carolina at a bar called Bowery. After 6 long years of tip jars and word of mouth, Randy Owen, Teddy Gentry and Jeff Cook got the major label deal they'd been dreaming of. Ever since 1969 Alabama has delivered numerous energy packed performances which has earned them many Entertainer of the Year Awards and in 2005, they got the membership of Country Music Hall of Fame and Hollywood Walk of Fame. Alabama is celebrating its 50th Anniversary with its Epic tour. Grab those tickets on Ticketnetwork.com.

Alabama has merged the genres of hard rock, country, gospel, pop and rock and roll together and are the first group to launch country rock music into mainstream.

They sold over 4 million copy of their debut album within a year of their debut. Since then, the group has recorded 260 songs out of which 65 are singles, 23 full length studio albums, 2 live albums and 8 compilation albums. They have sold around 73 million records worldwide. In 2002, Alabama went on a major worldwide tour to mark the end of the band's career.

Contributing their own versions of Alabama classics are Jason Aldean, Luke Bryan, Kenny Chesney, Eli Young Band, Florida Georgia Line, Jamey Johnson, Toby Keith, Rascal Flatts, and Trisha Yearwood.
