The tour follows the release of Gord’s 11th studio album, Fire It Up, released in April 2023 via Anthem Records. The album remains true to the country sound that has helped define his incredible career and includes the blazing title track “Fire It Up”. Also included on the album, is the Fall 2023 focus track, “Canadian Dirt,” a triumphant anthem about celebrating Canadian pride.
