HEADLINER
Chris Cagle
Born in De Ridder, LA and raised in Houston, TX, Chris Cagle is an American Country Music Artist. He moved to Nashville in 1994.
While in Nashville, the struggling Artist held down several jobs: nanny, waiter, prep chef and golf caddy, among many others. During that time, he signed a publishing deal with Caliber Music. He had his first song, “I Breathe In, I Breathe Out”, cut by David Kersh within 8 months of signing his deal, but he wanted more. He wanted to be an Artist.
That dream came true in 2000 when he signed to Virgin Records. Cagle co-wrote and co-produced his debut Gold record, Play It Loud, which produced a top 10 single, “My Love Goes On & On”, a top 5 single “Laredo” and the #1 single, “I Breathe In, I Breathe Out”.
His self-titled sophomore project debuted at #1 on the Billboard Country Albums chart and is certified Gold, as well as yielding two Top 5 singles: “What A Beautiful Day” and “Chicks Dig It”.
Cagle penned additional albums that brought more success with hits like “Miss Me Baby”, What Kinda Gone”, “Got My Country On”, “Let There Be Cowgirls” and “Country By The Grace Of God”.
Nominated for New Male Vocalist by the Academy of Country Music and Voted CMT’s Breakthrough Artist of the Year in 2002, it is the stage where Cagle has always shined the brightest. His passion for the performance of music is a rare find, and this Artist isn’t afraid of giving everything he has to his fans.
OPENER
Them Dirty Roses
Born and raised in the Bama clay, these boys are as southern as they come. Taught how to bend a string and break a heart by Skynyrd and Hank, brothers James and Frank Ford along with their hometown friends Andrew Davis and Ben Crain formed the southern rock band known as Them Dirty Roses. Piling into an RV with their belongings, their instruments, and all the whiskey they could carry (in the cooler), they made their way from Gadsden, AL to Nashville, TN. All living all under one roof, Them Dirty Roses are a living example of the quintessential rock and roll American Dream. Their live show calls for a shot of whiskey and a 2 for 1 special -- BUT what that really means is you better be ready to throw back 12 for 6 and shake it with Them Dirty Roses.
