Riley Green Announces 2027 Headline Tour With Major Alabama Homecoming Stop
Country superstar and former JSU quarterback Riley Green is bringing his 2027 tour to Alabama following the chart-topping success of his new album.

Country music sensation Riley Green is continuing his meteoric rise, officially announcing a major headlining tour for 2027 that includes a highly anticipated homecoming stop in Alabama. The announcement comes on the heels of the September 18 release of his latest studio album, “That’s Just Me,” which has already solidified its place on the national charts. Fans in the Yellowhammer State are eagerly preparing for the return of one of the genre's most authentic voices to his home turf.
The Jacksonville native’s transition from a standout Jacksonville State University quarterback to a Nashville powerhouse is reflected in his recent commercial dominance. Two tracks from the new album—the title track “That’s Just Me” and the hit “Think As You Drunk”—have already broken into the top 40 on the country charts. Green’s ability to blend traditional country sounds with modern storytelling has resonated deeply with audiences, particularly those in Alabama who have followed his journey since his early days performing in the local circuit.
The 2027 tour represents a significant milestone for Green, signifying his status as a persistent heavy hitter in the industry—or, as the football-inspired idiom suggests, he continues to "move the chains." Beyond the music, his return to Alabama is expected to be a major cultural and economic event, drawing fans from across the Southeast to witness the former Gamecock athlete on the big stage. As anticipation builds for specific venue details and ticket release dates, Green’s current momentum suggests that 2027 will be a landmark year for the Alabama-born star.
