Brantley Gilbert hit Number One again this week with “You Don’t Know Her Like I Do,” which is his second chart-topping single after last year’s “Country Must Be Country Wide.” But the Georgia native isn’t stopping to rest anytime soon.

Today, Gilbert announced  his first headlining tour, which will kick off in the fall. Dubbed the Hell on Wheels Tour, Gilbert will hit cities such as Boise, Dodge City, and San Antonio. Artists supporting him on various dates will include Uncle Kracker, Greg Bates, and Brian Davis.

And while celebrating that news, and the success of his current single, the 27-year-old artist is already thinking ahead to his next potential chart-topping hit.

During an interview with Houston station KILT, Gilbert revealed that his next single will be “Kick It in the Sticks.”

“I’m just now able to let the cat out of the bag,” he told KILT’s Foley & Thunder morning show, “so this is some breaking news for ya.”

As for his current success, “it’s a great feeling, it makes you feel accomplished,” Gilbert told Charlotte station WSOC last week.

Brantley Gilbert’s Hell on Wheels Tour begins Sept. 27 in Lafayette, Indiana. Meanwhile, Gilbert is currently on tour this summer supporting Toby Keith.
