Headlining this weekend: 

Michael Ray 

Forged on the small stages of Florida’s rural communities, Michael Ray has created an impressive foundation. With four No. 1 songs—including the RIAA Platinum-certified “Think a Little Less,” RIAA Platinum-certified “Whiskey and Rain,” RIAA Gold-certified “Kiss You in the Morning,” and RIAA Gold-certified “One That Got Away”—plus “Get to You” and “Her World or Mine,” which bring his tally to four RIAA Gold-certified singles, he has garnered over 2 billion global streams, over 650,000 album equivalents, and over 150 million YouTube views. He is a true country star who has performed at the Grand Ole Opry 73 times. Looking to expand his sound, Ray sought out CMA Album of the Year Award-winning producer Michael Knox. The pair have taken his brand of country to a new level for Dive Bars & Broken Hearts, Ray’s six-song EP available now via Warner Music Nashville, featuring the current single and haunting duet “Spirits and Demons” with Meghan Patrick, a two-time Canadian Country Music Association Female Artist of the Year. 

The Commodores 

In 1968, the legendary funk and soul band was formed while all the members were in college at Tuskegee Institute. After being discovered by Berry Gordy, the Commodores went on to sell over 60 million records for Motown. With hits like “Machine Gun” and “Sail On,” the Commodores became proven artists. For five decades, the Commodores have remained a force in the music industry. They have influenced artists both young and old, across all genres, with their classic songs. The Commodores aren’t just any group—they have staying power. Just like their hit song “Brick House,” the Commodores have created a foundation that just won’t budge. 

For those seeking the ultimate concert experience, Reserved Seating is available for purchase, offering the best seats in the house.
