Rock and roll Hall of Fame inductees Journey and Grammy Award-winning country artists Little Big Town will be the headliners at the 2025 Concert Series for The American Express PGA Tour golf event in La Quinta in January.

The concerts will take place after play at the driving range at PGA West Stadium Course, the host course for the 66th annual tournament, with Little Big Town playing Jan. 17 and Journey playing Jan. 18.

General admission tickets for Friday and Saturday will be $99 each day, with admission to the day’s golf as well as general admission to that evening’s concert included for that price.

Little Big Town, having won Grammy, ACM, CMA, AMA and Emmy awards, is a popular country vocal group consisting of members Karen Fairchild, Phillip Sweet, Kimberly Schlapman and Jimi Westbrook. They first entered the music scene more than two decades ago and have released 11 studio albums, most recently this year’s The Christmas Record.  Their discography includes 24 hit singles, including the chart-toppers “Pontoon” and “Better Man,” plus the top-10 hits “Boondocks,” “Bring It On Home,” “Little White Church,” “Tornado,” “Day Drinking,” and “Girl Crush.”

Since forming in 1973, Journey has earned 19 top-40 singles and 25 gold and platinum albums. Their Greatest Hits album has been certified 15 times platinum, elevating Journey into the elite club of Diamond-certified sellers. In 2017, the group was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and their hit “Don’t Stop Believin’” was declared the biggest song of all time by the Recording Industry Association of America. Other classic Journey hits include “Open Arms,” “Any Way You Want It,” “Faithfully,” and “Wheel in the Sky.”

“The artists for this year’s American Express Concert Series are sure to get our fans excited for an incredible weekend, solidifying the tournament as one of the most entertaining events on the PGA Tour,” said Pat McCabe, executive director of The American Express, in a statement announcing the schedule. “We’re thrilled to welcome Little Big Town and Journey to the desert. This is a great opportunity to introduce classic rock and country music fans to top-tier golf, while giving our golf fans the chance to experience these world-renowned artists.”
