Country star and multiplatinum artist Gary Allan will make a stop in Fort Wayne on Thursday, Feb. 9, for a performance at The Clyde. 

Allan is out on a nationwide celebration of his critically acclaimed 10th studio album Ruthless. The album landed at No. 8 on the Top Country Albums chart and earned immediate praise for showcasing what Allan does best: edgy, impassioned vocals and clever, thoughtful lyrics. 

Some of you may recall Allan’s memorable Country Fest performance in 2013 when he headlined a Parkview Field event along with Craig Morgan, Love and Theft, Bill Gentry, and others. Now, he returns for a night of boot scootin’ action at The Clyde. 

General admission tickets go on sale Friday, Nov. 18, at 10 a.m. at clydetheatre.com, over the phone at (800) 514-3849, or in person at The Clyde box office and Sweetwater Sound.

Brewery touring act comes to Trubble

Dennis & Brad’s Great Brewery Tour comes to Trubble Brewing on Friday, Dec. 2, at 7 p.m.
