San Diego, CA. (Top40 Charts/ Eventful Official Website) - Eventful and Little Big Town announced today that country musicians across the nation can register and compete to land a spot as the opening act on Little Big Town's upcoming A Place to Land tour. The top four acts will perform at different stops on the tour during March. Once the bands are registered for the competition, the rest is up to the support of their fans. Regardless of their hometowns, fans across the nation can bolster their favorite acts' chances to make it to the big stage by using Eventful's Demand service. The four performers with the most Demands have won themselves a huge step forward in their music careers.
