Little Big Town Honors 25-Year Legacy at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena
Country superstars Little Big Town celebrated their 25th anniversary in style on Friday night with a sold-out homecoming performance at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena. This unforgettable night marked the closing of their Take Me Home Tour with Sugarland. Just before taking the stage, Team UMG Nashville and Sandbox Entertainment surprised the band with a plaque commemorating 25 years of success and a remarkable milestone of 29 million RIAA-certified units sold.
2024 has been a banner year for the group, packed with monumental firsts. Earlier this year, Little Big Town released their debut Greatest Hits album, featuring 12 career-spanning tracks and collaborations with artists like Kelsea Ballerini, Miranda Lambert, and Sugarland. They also unveiled their first-ever holiday record, The Christmas Record, which showcases a blend of classic covers and original holiday songs. Produced by Dave Cobb, the LP has been widely praised for its heartfelt and festive spirit.
A Year of Celebrations and Firsts
Little Big Town’s influence has expanded even further this year with their participation in iconic events. The band brought their holiday magic to the Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree Lighting, performing tracks from The Christmas Record like “Santa Claus Is Back In Town” and “Glow.” Tonight, fans can catch their first-ever holiday special, Christmas at the Opry, airing on NBC at 8:00 PM ET/PT and streaming on Peacock. This two-hour special features dazzling performances with artists such as Dan + Shay, Sheryl Crow, Kirk Franklin, and Josh Groban.
