“If you want a heads up as soon as they are available, you can get a 24 hour window to buy tickets before they are released to the general public via email or text,” Anthony wrote on social media. “Love y’all!”

Anthony made waves in August with the viral hit “Rich Men North of Richmond,” a song that critiques the politicians of Washington. The song was downloaded more than 147,000 times on iTunes in just the first week of its release, bringing in $102,000 for Anthony.

In August, Anthony appeared on The Joe Rogan Experience and described his Christian faith as a major cornerstone of his life. He also revealed that after an emergency room visit, he vowed to start over again and make God the focus of his life, saying he found wisdom in the Bible.

“It’s not preachy. It’s not what you think. … It’s good guidance that you would want a father to give to his son,” Anthony said.
