ARLINGTON, Tex. (January 22, 2023) – The American Western Weekend, a national sporting event and destination celebration of the American West owned by Teton Ridge, announced today that eventgoers at The American Rodeo on March 9 at Globe Life Field will be treated to a live performance from GRAMMY® Award-nominated, 8x RIAA diamond-certified global superstar Post Malone.

“We are very excited to welcome Post Malone to his hometown of Dallas/Ft Worth to add to the party happening around The American Western Weekend,” said Deirdre Lester, CEO of Teton Ridge. “His energy and drive are very much aligned with the passion that The American Rodeo provokes with rodeo fans and athletes.”
Malone has recently been dabbling in country music, earning his first placement on Billboard’s country charts in November of last year with the song “Pickup Man”, a duet with Joe Diffie. The singer-songwriter joined country favorites Morgan Wallen and Hardy to perform the track on the most recent CMA Awards. He is also set to perform at the famed country music Stagecoach Festival in late April 2024.
Most recently, he released his highly anticipated fifth full-length record AUSTIN. The album, self-titled after Post’s legal name, is yet another shift in sound for Post and features all live instrumentation produced by Post and his longtime collaborators Louis Bell and Andrew Watt. In June, he received the Songwriters Hall of Fame “Hal Davis Starlight Award.
