The Central States Fair is pleased to welcome Chase Rice to the stage on Friday, August 25. With more than 2.4 million albums sold and over 2.5 billion total streams, plus a legion of passionate fans at his high-energy concerts across the globe, Chase Rice has established himself as a powerful force in Nashville and beyond. With the critically acclaimed album I Hate Cowboys & All Dogs Go To Hell crafted in his rural Tennessee home-turned-studio available everywhere now, Rice’s sound continues to evolve to reflect the realities of his life; from emotional reckoning to an admiration of the Western way of life. In addition to hits like his triple-Platinum, two-week chart-topper “Eyes On You,” Platinum-certified No. 1 “Drinkin’ Beer. Talkin’ God. Amen. (feat. Florida Georgia Line),” Platinum-certified top 10 hit “Lonely If You Are” and more, fans will also hear all 13 songs on the new album, included his latest single, the crowd-favorite “Bad Day To Be A Cold Beer.”
Joining Rice will be Matt Koziol. The deluxe version of his debut album, Wildhorse (Barrel Aged) just released in March, producing chart topper “Work All Day” featuring Drake White.
“Friday night will be a great night for country music fans”, says Fair Manager Ron Jeffries. “Dancing in the dirt is about to take on a whole new meaning with these high energy entertainers!”
Chase Rice with Matt Koziol joins Sawyer Brown as part of the Central States Fair grandstand concerts, with more announcements yet to come.
Passes for all grandstand events go on sale June 15 at Central States Fair.com and all Family Fare locations. The fair will again offer limited VIP passes, along with premier and grandstand passes for the entire grandstand line-up, and individual tickets will also be available.
