COUNTRY SUPERSTAR KENNY CHESNEY
TO ROCK THE 4TH OF JULY AT THE
2013 GREENBRIER CLASSIC CONCERT SERIES
White Sulphur Springs, WV - February 20, 2013:
The Greenbrier, the classic American resort in White Sulphur Springs, WV, has announced that country music superstar Kenny Chesney will top a star-studded musical lineup at The Greenbrier Classic Concert Series, July 1-7, 2013, coinciding with the resort's fourth annual PGA TOUR FedExCup Event, The Greenbrier Classic.
Kenny Chesney, a four-time Country Music Association and four-consecutive Academy of Country Music Entertainer of the Year, as well as the fan-voted American Music Awards Favorite Artist, is known for his high-energy concerts that regularly sell out NFL stadiums. Having recorded 19 #1s, including the multiple week chart-toppers "There Goes My Life," "Summertime," "Living in Fast Forward," "You & Tequila" and "When the Sun Goes Down," the man who's sold almost 30 million albums has become the sound of summer, good times and good friends for the 21st century.
"This country is an amazing place," says Chesney. "I can see it every night at my shows: all the heart, the passion and the fun I can see out in the crowd. And to be able to spend the 4th of July somewhere as historic as The Greenbrier, that's a pretty incredible place to celebrate our nation's birthday!"
"We couldn't be happier to have an American superstar like Kenny Chesney to top the bill at our Greenbrier Classic concert series," says Jim Justice, owner of The Greenbrier. "Kenny's at the top of his game--making him the perfect performer to match the world's best golfers who will be teeing off on The Old White TPC course that week!"
Chesney will headline The Greenbrier Classic Concert Series at 8:30 on Thursday, July 4, 2013, also the first day of The Greenbrier Classic PGA TOUR event, at the State Fair of West Virginia amphitheater in Fairlea.
Admission to the star-studded Greenbrier Classic Concert Series is included in the price of weekly Greenbrier Classic tournament badges, which are priced from $199 per person.
