Andrew Oosterhuis, Vice President of Marketing at Labatt Breweries of Canada, emphasized the importance of bringing country music back to its small-town roots for all Canadians to enjoy.

Owen Riegling, a budding country music star hailing from Mildmay, Ontario, has been making waves in the Canadian country music scene after winning the 2022 Emerging Artist Showcase at Boots & Hearts festival.

Riegling expressed his excitement about the upcoming tour, which includes stops in both familiar and new small-town bars, connecting with fans and sharing his music in a meaningful way. With a personal connection to Bud Light and an inspiring song dedicated to the brand, Riegling’s collaboration on the Buckle Up Tour was a natural fit, according to Oosterhuis.

The tour will visit locations such as Fort McMurray, Banff, Saskatoon, Thunder Bay, and many others, culminating in a homecoming show for Owen in Mildmay. Each stop will feature a special opening performance by a local musician, adding to the unique and authentic experience of the tour.
