NASHVILLE, TENN.(January 4, 2019) – Breakout hitmaker Morgan Wallen is set to launch his headlining IF I KNOW ME Tour presented by Shiner Light Blonde with a SOLD OUT show tonight in Rosemont, IL, at Joe’s Live. After a record 2018 with his first #1 as both an artist (“Up Down” feat. Florida Georgia Line) and a songwriter (Jason Aldean’s “You Make It Easy”), Wallen is hitting the road with label mate HARDY for a 27-city run featuring special guests Lainey Wilson and Lacy Cavalier, with advance sell outs in major cities including Knoxville, TN, Athens, GA, Madison, WI, Springfield, IL, and Nashville, TN. 

The IF I KNOW ME tour follows his debut album of the same name, which was recently chosen as one of Taste of Country’s10 Best Country Albums of 2018, and gives fans a chance to get to know Wallen even more. After honing his stage skills opening for Country music giants Florida Georgia Line, Luke Bryan, Jake Owen and Chris Lane, Wallen’s live shows are at an all-time high, with CMT raving, “All hail Morgan Wallen.” The nationwide tour will continue through March 30, closing out the high-energy run in Salt Lake City, UT. 

To celebrate the kick-off, Wallen has premiered a new music video for album track “Chasin’ You” today exclusively on Vevo. In this stunning black and white clip directed by Justin Clough and shot in Nashville, the love-struck fan-favorite details his pursuit of the one that got away, taking an emotional turn from Wallen’s past videos (“Whiskey Glasses”“Up Down”“The Way I Talk”). 

Watch the “Chasin’ You” music video here.

Meanwhile, Wallen’s current single “Whiskey Glasses” is burning up the charts at Country radio, steadily climbing up the Top 40. Whiskey Riff praises that “it’s clever, catchy and if you’ve ever had to drink away a broken heart, you know exactly where he’s coming from.”
