Jon Pardi met his wife, Summer, at the Grizzly Rose

Jon Pardi is playing football stadiums these days, so he doesn’t get back to his honky-tonk roots very often. However, thanks to our St. Jude Jam on Nov. 12, Jon gets to come back to the Grizzly Rose in Denver, a place that must hold a very special spot in his heart…

The last time Jon played Denver’s most famous honky-tonk was in 2017, but that show also was the first time he met the woman who become his wife. According to Country Fancast, “Pardi and wife Summer Duncan Pardi have been going strong since they first met in 2017 through Jon’s mother, Shellie Harrington! Their first encounter involved Summer flying out with a friend to Denver, Colorado, to watch Jon perform at the Grizzly Rose. They have been inseparable ever since!”

I’m sure Summer is busy raising babies at home these days, but maybe she’ll have to make the trip to Denver with Jon for old time’s sake in November.

Tickets to the show are completely sold out, but you can win some along with backstage passes here.
