- Jelly Roll was playing Barefoot Country Music Festival in New Jersey on June 22.
- The show came between dates on Post Malone‘s Big A– Stadium Tour.
- Later this year he’ll tour in Europe for the first time, with dates scheduled into November.

In the comments section, fans shared their appreciation of Jelly Roll’s recognition, as well as their own reactions.
