It has been a massive year for Jelly Roll. His massively successful Beautifully Broken Tour was the biggest outing of his career. Additionally, he scored his first No. 1 album on the Billboard 200 and the Top Country Albums charts. He’s also going into 2025 with a pair of new Grammy nominations. That’s just scratching the surface of how many wins the “Save Me” singer racked up over the last 12 months. Tonight, he’s co-headlining New Year’s Eve Live: Nashville’s Big Bash from Bicentennial Park in Music City.
Jelly Roll could have looked back on his year, rested on his laurels, and no one would have batted an eye. However, he chose to end 2024 with a bang. Taking the stage at Bicentennial Park, he delivered a moving performance of “I Am Not Okay” that gave everyone in the crowd and those watching at home enough motivation to go into 2025 with confidence.

Jelly Roll Won’t Be Able to Come to the Phone in 2025
Earlier this month, Jelly Roll appeared on his wife’s Dumb Blonde podcast. During their conversation, he talked about managing his stress by going into the new year without a phone. “I can confidently tell people I’m not going to have a phone all of ’25,” he said.
Most fans already knew Jelly Roll wouldn’t have a phone for the rest of the year. He threw his phone into the Cumberland River in Nashville after finishing his tour. That wasn’t a spur-of-the-moment decision. “I talked about it all year. I was like ‘If this tour goes the way I want it to, I’m gonna throw my phone off the Shelby Street Bridge,’” he said.
“I was getting to the point where I was getting hundreds and hundreds of text messages a day. And I just was overwhelmed. I just could not field them all. When I would finally sit down to go back through them I would feel like such a bad human for missing them,” he explained. “I was carrying a lot of guilt. This phone was causing me a lot of guilt,” he added.
