ZBB gets "Out in the Middle" with Shelton
The track will be featured on a recently announced deluxe version of ZBB's latest album, "The Comeback," due this fall. ZBB will perform "Out in the Middle" this Thursday on The Late Late Show with James Corden.
The group also is on the road with "The Comeback Tour," their comeback to live performances following COVID-19. The band began the tour in South Carolina and will soon visit Boston's Fenway Park, where they hold the record for most consecutive sold-out shows. The band recently performed to a crowd of nearly 30,000 fans at Truist Park in their hometown of Atlanta and are set to visit Wrigley Field in Chicago, Citi Field in New York, and the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles.
Robert Randolph Band will join Zac Brown Band on select dates throughout the tour alongside Caroline Jones. Jones will return to perform with the band once again after performing as a special guest during "The Comeback Tour." On Nov. 19, Sam Hunt will join the group to finish the tour.
