Jason Aldean Recalls Frantic Weeks After Las Vegas Shooting

Jason Aldean suffered survivor's guilt and a breakdown months after the 2017 Route 91 Harvest Festival shooting that killed 60 and injured over 800, relying on family support instead of therapy.

  • Jason Aldean said he suffered a breakdown in the months after the Route 91 Harvest Festival shooting on Oct. 1, 2017, which killed 60 people and injured more than 800.
  • Aldean said survivor's guilt hit after his crew escaped uninjured, and following the tour, family life—including Brittany giving birth two months later—helped him process events.
  • After the attack, Aldean returned home where he had a breakdown thinking about those lost and his wife, who was eight months pregnant, describing it as a difficult moment.
  • Choosing informal support, Aldean later said his 'therapy' was family and his band, relying on his wife Brittany and his band and crew rather than professional counseling while funding therapy programs for others affected.
  • Nearly 10 years on, Aldean remains haunted by the shooting but chose to accept the trauma and has suggested possible residency plans in Las Vegas, permanently linking him to the city.
