Thomas Rhett kicks off ‘Summer of Live’ with surprise Nashville performance

Nashville’s own Thomas Rhett turned a local favorite into a high-energy concert venue this week, delivering an intimate “Secret Set” at Odie’s to celebrate the launch of Live Nation’s Summer of Live. The surprise pop-up performance served as a thank-you to his hometown and a kickoff for a nationwide celebration of live music.

The event was teased across social media just days prior, sparking a frenzy that saw fans lining up around the block for a chance to squeeze into the standing-room-only space. Those lucky enough to get inside were treated to a stripped-down, acoustic showcase of Rhett’s biggest hits, including “Make Me Wanna,” “T-Shirt,” and the multi-platinum “Die A Happy Man.”

The evening featured several standout moments, most notably a surprise appearance by Jordan Davis. The duo performed “Ain’t A Bad Life” together for the first time—a milestone track that recently became Thomas Rhett’s 25th career number-one single. In a rare treat for the elated crowd, Rhett also debuted a brand-new, unreleased track, offering a glimpse into his latest creative direction.

The Nashville pop-up is the first in a series of exclusive “Secret Set” performances tied to the Summer of Live initiative. To celebrate the season, Live Nation is offering $30 all-in tickets to more than 4,000 shows across North America. Available now through May 5 at , the offer includes a massive roster of artists spanning all genres, from Kesha and Kid Cudi to Luke Bryan and mgk.

This intimate set builds significant momentum for Rhett’s upcoming Soundtrack to Life Tour, which officially launches on July 7 at Nashville’s GEODIS Park. The tour features a co-headline date with Niall Horan before traveling to cities like Dallas, Hartford, and Hershey.

With over 16 billion streams and eight ACM Awards to his name, Thomas Rhett continues to prove why he is one of country music’s most versatile hitmakers. For those who missed the secret set, tickets for the full summer tour and the $30 promotional offer are available now.
