Luke Bryan uses unreleased song as tour opener

NASHVILLE, May 13 (UPI) — Luke Bryan is proud of his upcoming single. So proud, in fact, that he is using the song as his set opener before it becomes available to the public.

“Kick the Dust Up” will hit radios and digital-download sites Tuesday, but what Bryan calls a “big, anthemic sing-along” was meant for a lot more — a headlining spot on his set list and a tour that shares its name.

“That’s how confident we are in the song being pretty awesome,” he told USA Today’s Brian Mansfield. “We figured the socials would start lighting up and people would start learning the words. Once it hits radio, people will catch on real quick.”

The 38-year-old CMA and ACM entertainer of the year kicked off his “Kick the Dust Up” tour on May 8, just one night after completing his previous “That’s My Kind of Night” tour. The set lists of both are reported to be similar, aside from the incorporation of Bryan’s still unreleased single.
