Riley Green celebrated the release of his highly anticipated new album Ain’t My Last Rodeo by raising more than $50,000 for his newly-created Buford Bonds Charitable Fund which will support various veteran organizations.

Thousands gathered at Nashville’s Walk of Fame Park, joining Green for a special over-capacity album release show. Green will continue the celebration this week with a performance on ABC’s Good Morning America this Friday, October 20.

The 12-track project delivers more of the signature no-gimmick, undeniably country sound fans have come to know, and includes his current Top 20-and-climbing single with his former tourmate on “Different ‘Round Here (featuring Luke Combs).”

The music and lyrics, both heavily influenced by blue-collar roots, small town life, and slower way of living, exemplify Green’s homage to his experiences, beliefs, passions, and love of family. The title bares its name from a poignant track on the album, “My Last Rodeo,” which Green wrote solo following one of the final conversations he had with his late Grandaddy Buford Green near the end of his life.

Buford was the brains behind converting Riley’s great-grandparents’ home into the Golden Saw Music Hall and is credited for Riley’s musical appreciation, education and inspiration, while his Granddaddy Lyndon can be attributed for Riley’s love of the outdoors. Proceeds from Thursday night’s album release event will go to the newly minted Buford Bonds Charitable Fund which honors his late grandfathers and provides resources for a variety of charities including those supporting veterans.

“We’ve been playing some of these new songs out on the road this summer and I’m excited to share them with the world,” said Green. “My grandaddies were huge inspirations on me, my songwriting and what is most important to me. Thursday night was a blast, but it also means a lot to mark the occasion by honoring them and raising money for some great charities that they would have been proud to support.”
