Florida Georgia Line launched to mega-fame in late 2012 with the hit single “Cruise.” Not only did they bring country music to the masses, they mixed it up, working with hip-hop artists Nelly and Jason Derulo to get their sound out there. And it’s proven successful, as Brian Kelley and Tyler Hubbard’s sophomore album, “Anything Goes,” soared to a No. 1 debut on the all-genre Billboard 200 and Billboard Top Country Albums.
They’re gearing up for the next stretch of their tour, which kicks off Wednesday night with a sold-out show at New York City’s Madison Square Garden. “That really does feel like a dream when mentioning that to our managers, our booking agents and our team,” Kelley told HuffPost Entertainment. “Madison Square Garden is a bucket list venue for us, just so much history. We’re excited to fill the city with country music that night, we’re going to bring the party! We’ve been working for this moment all of our lives.”
