Kid Rock makes a surprise appearance at Morgan Wallen's Cleveland concert, see details below

Morgan Wallen brought out Kid Rock as a surprise guest for his signature walk-out moment at Cleveland show. Country star Morgan Wallen kicked off the Cleveland leg of his 'I'm The Problem' tour, with a surprise. On the opening night of his Huntington Bank Stadium performances, the 32-year-old singer, who is well-known for his signature walk-out moments which often include famous guest appearances, brought out none other than Kid Rock. The 54-year-old rocker walked out in style, in a long black-and-white fur coat with the words 'Cowboy' emblazoned on the back - a nod to his 1999 classic of the same name. With Rock's "Cowboy" serving as the background music, Wallen shared a video on Instagram showing the two musicians, sharing a dramatic handshake, before Rock throws off his coat and they dash out into the cheering crowd. "Cowboy, baby" was the caption for the photo. The surprise collaboration wasn't out of the blue. Earlier this year, Kid Rock raved about his connection with Wallen during an appearance on Bill Maher's Club Random podcast. He also revealed that Wallen helped co-write his hit track, 'Still Somethin' from the 2022 album, 'Bad Reputation', alongside Mitchell Tenpenny, Andy Albert and Jordan Schmidt. Rock was thoroughly impressed by Wallen's talent after listening to his demo, 'This is before Morgan Wallen blew up. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Use an AI Writing Tool That Actually Understands Your Voice Grammarly Install Now Undo I remember somehow I got a demo of it, I can't remember what, and I just couldn't get over the voice on it,' he said. 'I was like, 'Who the f–k is singing this demo?' It was Morgan Wallen.' Since then the pair have formed a tight-knit bond. The country star even wore Kid Rock's t-shirt during his Houston show in June, while taking the stage alongside special guests Drake and baseball legend Roger Clemens. Wallen's concerts are now known for their star-studded cameos, and his fans love it! As fans anxiously await whatever celebrity will accompany Wallen for his famous walk-out, every show begins with a frenzied sense of anticipation. Drake, NFL greats Peyton Manning and Tom Brady, tight end Travis Kelce of the Kansas City Chiefs, actor David Spade, and broadcaster Troy Aikman have all made appearances in the past. The Cleveland crowd erupted in joy as Kid Rock's most recent entry to the list carried on Wallen's remarkable run.
