Country-rock performance by Corey Kent and Tyler Nance as part of the Heartland Rock and Roll Tour 2027.
Corey Kent brings his Heartland Rock and Roll Tour 2027 to Stage AE on Thursday, March 11, with Tyler Nance opening. It's a double bill that puts two different takes on country-rock on the same stage, and the contrast is a good part of the draw.
Kent is the headliner, and his sound is the high-energy anchor of the night. He leans into a broad, rebel-rock energy rooted in Oklahoma, so expect a set that keeps the volume up and the pace moving. Nance opens with a more direct, emotionally focused blend of country, bluegrass, folk, and Americana. Where Kent is wide and loud, Nance is more stripped-back, pulling from those traditional acoustic textures and bringing them into a contemporary feel. Together they cover a lot of ground—Kent handles the rock side, Nance the folk and bluegrass side—so the night moves from one end of the country-rock spectrum to the other.

It's an indoor show at Stage AE, 400 North Shore Drive in Pittsburgh, and it's open to all ages, which means you can bring whoever you want. The music runs from 8 PM to 11 PM, so it's a full evening rather than a quick set. If you're into country-rock, this is a straightforward way to see two different approaches to it in one night.
