LINDSAY ELL (Headliner) - Lauded as “one of the most exciting and talented young artists in country music” (Forbes), Lindsay Ell is a triple threat: accomplished musician, unique vocalist and songwriter. She is a multi CMA, ACM, CCMA, and CMT award nominee with radio hits like "Criminal", "Waiting On You", “What Happens In a Small Town” with Brantley Gilbert, and her most recent single "I Don't Love You" from her latest album Heart Theory, an emotional concept LP about the seven stages of grief.

Luke Hendrickson (Opener) - Hendrickson has been a staple of the Southeast Minnesota country music scene since 2010, when he started performing as part of Luke n Bob Texas. He’s been taking his solo rootsy country/folky blues music around the country and even internationally in the last few years, since the release of his Comfort Food EP. His hard work ethic and down home attitude really shines through on his latest full-length effort One Night At the Crystal Lounge. (John Sievers, 507 Magazine)
