NASHVILLE, Tenn.- Country Music Hall of Famer Alan Jackson is coming to Grand Forks this summer as part of his Last Call: One More for the Road tour.
Jackson is touring for the first time since revealing a health diagnosis last fall. Jackson suffers from CMT, Charcot-Marie-Tooth, a chronic inherited neuropathy condition that results in nerve deterioration and hampers muscle function, movement, and balance. A portion of the proceeds from the Last Call tour will be donated to the CMT Research Foundation.
“I’ve always admired my heroes like George Jones, Merle Haggard, Loretta Lynn and Charley Pride who just played as much as they wanted to, as long as they could,” Jackson said. “I’ve always thought I’d like to do that, and I’d like to as long as my health will allow.”
The country music icon will play the Alerus Center on Saturday, July 30. Tickets go on sale Friday, March 18 at 10am on the artist’s website alanjackson.com/tour.
