THE MARSHALL TUCKER BAND HITS THE ROAD IN 2014 WITH TAKE THE HIGHWAY TOUR

Nashville, Tenn. (December 19, 2013) - Today, the iconic multi-platinum selling Marshall Tucker Band (MTB) announced its 2014 tour, marking its 43rd year on the road. The band's Take The Highway Tour kicks off next month in Honolulu, Hawaii and continues throughout 2014 with nearly 40 concert dates currently on the books.
"Next year's tour schedule is shaping up to be huge with so many great shows already scheduled," says MTB lead singer Doug Gray.  "We wanted to brand next year's tour with something that would stick and make sense.  'Take The Highway' is perfect not only because it is one of our big career songs but also because it's what we do almost 200 days out of the year!

The 2014 Tamworth Country Music Festival will be the first for 2012 "X-Factor" runner-up Jason Owen.
Jason is joining country starlet Amber Lawrence as her special guest and will be "a rare chance" for audiences to see two premier young country artists sharing the same stage.
Throughout this year, Jason has been touring Australia beside Amber and they already have "a swag" of tour dates locked in for 2014.
"The show has been a hit," said a spokesman for the pair, "selling out metropolitan centres and regional areas, earning Jason a whole new fan base."
The 19-year-old's debut album Life Is A Highway landed at number five on the ARIA Album Chart and number one on the iTunes Country Chart in its first week out. The album has also been nominated for a Golden Guitar for Top Selling Album of the Year.
"Amber and myself have so much fun together on stage," Jason said. "We both love to perform our hearts out so our audience members can expect fun, great songs and a whole lot of entertainment. The show contains songs from Amber's three albums (to date) and me singing songs from my current album."
