The chorus against the concert pricing practices of Ticketmaster is growing with the help of friends and former coworkers.
The artist dropped a live album. He decried a huge issue with fair ticket prices to live shows recently.
Bryan decided to play a limited number of headline shows next year in order to prove to people that they don't have to pay $450 for a good show.
He tagged the company in a separate post showing the track listing for the new album. The message was not returned.
There have been a lot of bad press and scrutiny on the company in the last few weeks.
The planned general sale for the stadium tour was scrapped because the dominant ticketing giant had run out of tickets. Several state attorneys general are investigating the debacle.
Thousands of people were left in the cold when a Bad Bunny concert was held in Mexico City. Mexico's consumer protection agency announced an investigation, but the concert was not oversold and instead blamed false tickets bought through unofficial channels and temporary disruptions in the ticket reading system.
Political engagement could be driven by the frustration over Ticketmaster's practices, which Bryan mentioned in his statement when he criticized the lack of action.
He said that a song writer should pride themselves on fighting for the people who listen to their songs.
Bryan's new album, "All My Homies Hate Ticketmaster," is at the top of Apple Music's country chart.
He was going to announce a tour soon.
