Old Dominion to Play UM’s Adams Center Feb. 22

MISSOULA – Virginia-based country band Old Dominion will play a show at the University of Montana’s Adams Center on Thursday, Feb. 22, 2018. Doors open at 7 p.m., and the show begins at 8 p.m.

Tickets go on sale at 10 a.m. Friday, Oct. 20, at all GrizTix locations and online. Prices range from $29.50 to $59.50, plus fees.

With hits such as “Break up with Him” and “No Such Thing as a Broken Heart,” Old Dominion’s success has led to demand for their live shows. The band has opened two stadium tours for Kenny Chesney and has been on the road with both Thomas Rhett and Miranda Lambert. The band’s debut album, “Meat and Candy,” climbed to No. 3 on Billboard’s Country Albums chart in 2015.

It was during their time touring that Old Dominion came up with ideas for their second album, “Happy Endings.”

“We love feel-good songs,” said lead singer Matthew Ramsey. “Sometimes you just want to put on something that makes you smile. It’s a big part of who we are, but we definitely wanted to show that we were capable of writing more than just fun, party tunes. We think we have the potential to be around for a long time. To stick around you have to have meaningful songs.”
