Tim McGraw will be playing at Rogers Arena March 27.

Tim McGraw, one of the biggest names in country music over the last three decades, has sold more than 40 million records around the world, and he's bring all those hits to Vancouver this week.

The Grammy-winning country music star is known for hits like "It's Your Love" (which was a duet with his wife Faith Hill), "Live Like You Were Dying," and "Highway Don't Care," which featured Keith Urban on guitar and Taylor Swift on vocals. Years earlier, Swift penned her first single "Tim McGraw." 

He has also appeared in Yellowstone and its prequel 1883.

He's currently on his Standing Room Only tour with Carly Pearce and Restless Road opening for him. Pearce is known for songs like "Every Little Thing" and "I Hope You're Happy Now" with Lee Brice. Restless Road is a Nashville-based band; members met at X Factor auditions.

Doors for the March 27 Vancouver show open at 7 p.m.
