Filmed on May 17, 2015 before an at-capacity crowd at Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Morrison, Colorado, in the midst of Jackson’s 25th Anniversary Keepin’ It Country tour. With a career spanning 23 albums deep (including two Christmas collections, two gospel albums, and his highly acclaimed The Bluegrass Album), Jackson’s insightful lyrics and inspired songwriting reflect the feelings of everyday life. That honesty has earned him the adulation of generations of fans. The 26-song rich set features performances of timeless classics from across his career (“Gone Country,” “Good Time,” “Small Town Southern Man,” “Chattahoochee,” “Where Were You (When The World Stopped Turning),” “Remember When,” “Where I Come From,” “It’s Five O’Clock Somewhere,” “Mercury Blues”), as well as songs from Jackson’s 2015’s smash album Angels And Alcohol, which debuted at #1 on the Billboard Country chart and #5 on the Top 200 (“You Never Know,” “Angels And Alcohol”).

The influence of Alan Jackson is immeasurable, and Keepin’ It Country – Live At Red Rocks is an incredible celebration of an essential country music icon.
