Who Is Opening for Jason Aldean in 2026? Chase Matthew, Mackenzie Carpenter & More
Jason Aldean is deep into the Songs About Us Tour 2026, an amphitheater and arena run that stretches into late September, with a handful of stadium blowouts alongside Luke Bryan mixed in. The support lineup is steady on most nights with a couple of market-specific wrinkles. Here's exactly who's on the bill.
The Core Lineup: Chase Matthew, Mackenzie Carpenter & Dee Jay Silver
Most Songs About Us dates run the same three-act support bill:
- Chase Matthew: The Nashville native broke out with "County Line" and has built a fast-growing catalog of rowdy, radio-ready country. He's the direct support slot and the biggest name on the undercard.
- Mackenzie Carpenter: A Georgia singer-songwriter with a sharp, playful writing voice, known for "Huntin' Season" and cuts she's penned for other major country acts. She opens the night.
- Dee Jay Silver: Aldean's longtime tour DJ, spinning between sets so the party doesn't stall while the stage flips.
Market-Specific Guests
A few stops swap or add names, straight from the venue listings:
- Charleston, WV: Nate Smith and Lanie Gardner join instead of the regular openers
- Cincinnati, OH: Elizabeth Nichols opens alongside Chase Matthew
- Welch, MN (Treasure Island Amphitheater): Ian Munsick appears as special guest
If your city isn't listed above, expect the core Chase Matthew and Mackenzie Carpenter bill. Each show's listing on the Jason Aldean page names the confirmed support.
The Double Down Stadium Shows with Luke Bryan
Aldean and Luke Bryan are also playing a run of co-headline stadium dates as the Double Down Tour 2026: two nights at Washington-Grizzly Stadium in Missoula in early August, Petco Park in San Diego and Nationals Park in Washington, DC later in August, and a two-night Las Vegas finale at Allegiant Stadium in December. These are their own separate event: two full headline sets on the same ticket.

What to Expect at the Show
Aldean's set is built on two decades of radio dominance: "Dirt Road Anthem," "Big Green Tractor," "You Make It Easy," and the arena-country wall of sound he helped define. The undercard skews young and hungry, which is the standard Aldean formula: he's consistently used his tours to platform rising Nashville acts, and both Chase Matthew and Mackenzie Carpenter fit that mold.
Amphitheater lawn tickets are the value play on this tour, frequently landing under $40 before fees in mid-size markets. Pavilion and pit pricing varies heavily by market; check current listings on the Jason Aldean page for direct links.
