Jelly Roll Is Currently Touring In Australia
On August 7, Jelly Roll announced seven dates in Australia and New Zealand.
“AUSSIE AUSSIE AUSSIE! Nashville is on the way baby. Pre-sale is on now. I’m coming for the Quokkas LFG,” he wrote on social media alongside the tour graphic.
The tour includes openers Shaboozey and Drew Baldridge plus incredible behind-the-scenes content from Jelly Roll himself.
Not only is Jelly Roll putting on incredible shows, he is also taking advantage of all the fun that Australia and New Zealand have to offer.
Like his tour announcement said, he did “come for” the quokkas! A quokka is an adorable animal native to Australia that look like they have a permanent smile on their faces. He was able to hold and bottle feed a baby quokka, and he could barely handle it.
“Dude, this is crazy, oh my God,” he says as he cradled the quokka. “I am fixing to faint. This might be the greatest day of my whole life.”
The facility also let him name it! After FaceTiming his wife, Bunnie XO, he decided on naming the quokka after country legend Loretta Lynn.
