Band Receives Plaque Celebrating Over 10 Million Album Equivalents with Big Machine Records
NASHVILLE, TN (February 6, 2026) – Marking their headlining return to Music City for the first time in over a decade, Country Music icons Rascal Flatts brought their LIFE IS A HIGHWAY TOUR to Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena last night. Halfway through the second leg of the tour, the band has delivered “explosive vocals, electrifying guitar solos” and “years of country-pop hits” (St Louis Post-Dispatch) to arenas nationwide, as “fans have greeted them with the same passion that made Rascal Flatts one of country music’s most consistent hitmakers” (The Tennessean). “A full celebration of country music drawing a crowd that blended longtime fans with newer listeners” (Broadway World), the tour continues through this weekend in Chicago, IL (2/6) and Indianapolis, IN (2/7), with openers Lauren Alaina and Chris Lane.
To honor their achievements in a storied 26-year career, Big Machine Label Group Founder, Chairman and CEO Scott Borchetta presented Rascal Flatts with a plaque to commemorate over 10 million album equivalents. Continuing their mark on Country Music history, three of the trio’s songs have earned new RIAA certifications, with “I Won’t Let Go” and “I Like The Sound Of That” now certified 2X PLATINUM, and “Yours If You Want It” is certified PLATINUM.
“The band’s recent reunion has been everything fans wanted and more,” (Parade) with their return to the spotlight last year garnering a “full-fledged second chapter, proving the trio still has plenty of music – and memories – left to share” (American Songwriter). Continuing through the rest of this month, tickets for the remaining tour dates are available for purchase HERE. The tour also features a variety of VIP packages and experiences, with select offerings still available, including premium tickets, access to the Rascal Flatts VIP Lounge, autographed tour posters, exclusive VIP gift items, and more.
