Two-time ACM Entertainer of the Year Jason Aldean will be featured in an upcoming Country Music Hall of Fame exhibit, Jason Aldean: Asphalt Cowboy.

The new exhibit, which opens on May 26, will explore the life and career of the Georgia native and will include childhood mementos, memorabilia from Jason’s early career, stage wear, guitars, awards, photos and more. The exhibit takes its name from the title of a song on Jason’s self-titled debut album in 2005.

“I could not be more honored to have an exhibit at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum,” said Jason. “To look around the space and see my personal heroes and artists who helped shape country music is a surreal feeling. To be a part of a legacy like this really is a dream come true.”

Jason’s exhibit will run from May 26 through November 5.
