Canadian country star, Tim Hicks is back to heat up the cold winter with new music and the announcement of his 2020 Wreck This Town World Tour.
First, fans get to be excited and dig into three new songs from Hicks on the Wreck EP. Wreck This Town, No Truck Song, and Ride Or Die clock in at just under 10 minutes, making for a quick listen, but a fun triple-header. When talking about No Truck Song, Hicks said, "It's so much fun... On every album I usually add one or two songs that are a little tongue-in-cheek, designed to give fans (and me!) a chuckle, but we've never released one as a single before. We smiled and laughed a lot while we wrote it, so I hope fans hear that, and it makes them do the same!"
As a single, it is a lot of fun, and like Hicks said, it's different than the singles he's released in the past. And guess what, that's 100% okay and we're here for it and artists changing things up and going for it.

On the tour side of Tim Hicks 2020 plans, things are also really exciting!
The Wreck This Town World Tour includes stops in Germany, the Netherlands, the UK, and Australia before coming home to Canada for a series of weekend warrior dates that will take him from Ontario, west to British Columbia before the end of the year. In all, there are 16 Canadian tour dates on the calendar. So far...
In a Facebook post on Friday afternoon, Tim said, "Wreck This Town World Tour coming to a city near you! More dates being announced soon. Are you ready to kick it?" And it's that middle sentence that really caught our eye because it means the number of Canadian stops on the Wreck This Town World Tour is going to grow, and maybe Tim will even make his way south of the border to give American country fans a little taste of Stronger Beer. We'll see soon.
It's also great to see Tim Hicks listed on the Cavendish Beach Music Festival, Havelock Country Jamboree lineups, putting him in front of Canadian country music fans who will get to see a lot of talent on those weekends.
