Rob Potts Entertainment Edge, Chugg Entertainment and CMC are thrilled to announce that US superstar Dierks Bentley and Aussie country icon Lee Kernaghan are hitting the road together for a limited series of dynamic concerts in March.

Aussie audiences went crazy for DIERKS BENTLEY (USA) when he joined Brooks & Dunn on their sold-out 2009 Australian arena tour. Since he rocketed onto the country landscape in 2003, the singer/songwriter’s five albums have sold over five million copies, earned 10 GRAMMY nominations, have spawned eight No. one hits and 12 Top 10 hits. Bentley recently released the anthemic “Home” as the second single off his upcoming sixth Capitol Nashville album. The new album is scheduled for release in early 2012 and has already scored Bentley the No. one hit “Am I The Only One.”

20 years of incredible hits have cemented LEE KERNAGHAN as the modern-day King of Australian Country Music. He has criss-crossed the country countless times and his fans keep coming back for more of his patented brand of hard rocking, uniquely Australian country. Lee has just released his 2-CD “Ultimate Hits” package in September, which catalogues one of the great Australian music careers, which has produced 31 #1 chart hits and record sales approaching two million units in Australia alone.

Bentley and Kernaghan became friends after meeting during Dierks’ first trip to Australia in 2009, leading to their #1 hit duet ‘Scars’, which recently topped the charts in Australia.

“It’s great to have Dierks back in Oz and this will be the first time the pair have performed together live,” said promoter Rob Potts. “Fans have a unique opportunity to see the two acts up close in the more intimate theatre venues, something that doesn’t happen often with the big US country stars”.
