From a press release:

The three-time Grammy Award winners and multi-platinum artists in the Zac Brown Band are embarking on their sixth headlining tour of the United States, “Black Out the Sun,” which stops at Hersheypark Stadium on Saturday, July 23 at 7 p.m. Special guests for the evening will be Drake White & The Big Fire.

Tickets, which are $34.10, $49, $69, and $79, plus fees, are on sale now and available at the Giant Center box office (550 Hersheypark Dr., Hershey), online at hersheyentertainment.com and ticketmaster.com, and by phone at 717-534-3911 or 800-745-3000.

Their latest gold-certified album “JEKYLL + HYDE,” out now on Southern Ground Artists/John Varvatos Records/Big Machine Label Group/Republic Records, marks the band’s third consecutive No. 1 debut on the Billboard 200 chart. Together with their three platinum-selling albums, “Uncaged,” “You Get What You Give,” and “The Foundation,” and their 2013 project “The Grohl Sessions Vol. 1,” the band has sold over eight million albums to date.

They have earned a historic series of 14 No. 1 hit radio singles and became only the second artist to top both the country and active rock formats. “Homegrown,” the band’s first single off of “JEKYLL + HYDE,” earned the title of the “No. 1 most-heard song of 2015,” according to Mediabase.

Zac Brown Band also recently earned a 2016 ACM nomination for “Vocal Group of the Year.”

The band’s sixth headlining U.S. concert tour follows on the heels of their largest North American stadium tour to date, which included two history making performances – a first-ever sold-out, three-night run at Fenway Park and the first-ever concert at Coors Field, along with performances at Wrigley Field, Nationals Park, Citi Field, Comerica Park, and Citizen’s Bank Park.

Zac Brown Band consists of Zac Brown (vocals/guitar), Jimmy De Martini (vocals/violin/guitar), John Driskell Hopkins (vocals/guitar/banjo/ukulele), Coy Bowles (vocals/keys/guitar), Clay Cook (vocals/guitar/keys), Chris Fryar (drums), Daniel de los Reyes (percussion), and Matt Mangano (bass).
