Country star Thomas Rhett is bringing his Soundtrack to Life Tour to Sacramento next Saturday, October 3, with a 7:30 p.m. show at Golden 1 Center. Gates open at 6:30 p.m., and tickets remain available online for the downtown arena date, according to KCRA 3.
A Superstar With a Long Résumé
KCRA 3, in a report from anchor and reporter Mike Cherry, describes Rhett as a country music superstar who has toured for 15 years, racking up 25 No. 1 hits, eight ACM Awards, two CMA Awards and five Grammy nominations along the way, with more than 16 billion streams to his name. Golden 1 Center's own materials point to two of his signature songs, noting he is known for “Marry Me” and “Die A Happy Man.” Rhett has said his music has resonated with people, and per the KCRA report, he views this tour as a celebration of fans sharing in his success.
Ernest and Emily Ann Roberts are set to open the Sacramento show, rounding out a bill that KCRA 3 says spans more than 20 cities across the country as part of the tour, which the station describes as promising bombastic, good-time energy.
The Sound Behind Life Changes
The Sacramento stop follows a body of work that critics have singled out for its genre-blending. A review cited by Golden 1 Center found that Rhett's Life Changes album tinkers with strains of silky R&B, Chainsmokers-style EDM and effervescent pop, while praising him as both a powerful storyteller and an artist willing to take risks. It's the kind of sonic range that has helped keep his arena shows a draw well beyond traditional country audiences.
This isn't Rhett's first run through the capital city's arena. Golden 1 Center previously announced that he brought his Life Changes Tour to Sacramento back on October 27, 2018, giving local fans a earlier taste of the same big-stage production now returning with the Soundtrack to Life run.
Show Details for Saturday Night
Doors for the October 3 show open at 6:30 p.m., with the concert itself getting underway at 7:30 p.m. at Golden 1 Center in downtown Sacramento. The listing also appears on Ticketmaster and on Live Nation's international tour page, which names the run as Thomas Rhett: The Soundtrack to Life Tour.
