For Russell Dickerson's All Yours All Night tour, fans can expect all the hits including his romantic songs. "I feel like I've been given a spot in country music to help guys express their feelings," he said. "I love playing ‘Yours' and ‘Love You Like I Used To' and to see couples, not just young couples but couples with some time in, slow dancing and kissing. I'm like, ‘That's right.'"
Another reason why Russell's concerts are known as RD Parties? It may have to do with some specific tracks. "I've had my songs remixed to turn into an actual dance party," he explained. "For my song ‘MGNO,' I had a producer actually make a full on EDM drop and it's the height of the show. Everybody's jumping and going crazy. There's smoke going off and all that stuff."
Before showtime, Russell likes to enjoy a bourbon beverage to warm up the vocals. "Maybe just a little Buffalo Trace on the rocks," he joked.
In addition to having a good drink, Russell also makes it a priority to gather the team together for a group exercise. "We huddle up before and pray over the band, pray over everybody there that they feel some sort of joy and light from this music that we've created and this evening we've created."
Before Russell plays his biggest hits, attendees are treated to a set from Breland. "He's got the country and the hip-hop crossover just perfectly dialed in and obviously that shows on ‘My Truck,'" Russell said. "Once you hear that song, you can't deny that the kid is a star. I'm so pumped that we got him locked, because he is a young star and he is rising."
Being able to headline a concert is an accomplishment Russell doesn't take for granted. "They bought a ticket to see Russell Dickerson and those fans come along with knowing all the album cuts and not just the songs that have been on the radio," he said. "We haven't experienced that yet. I can't wait to just play all the songs off Southern Symphony that we haven't gotten to play this year."
