Addison’s Rock ‘N Wheels summer concert series continues Thursday, Aug. 18 with country music artist Joe Nichols plus Nate Venturelli for a double dose of country music originals.
Admission is free and the venue is open 6-10 p.m. Nate Venturelli performs at 6:30 p.m. on the 95.9 FM River Stage followed by Joe Nichols at 8 p.m.
Joe Nichols has been a mainstay of country music for two decades, bridging the gap between the genre’s old-school roots and contemporary era. He’s a 21st century traditionalist — an artist who’s both timely and timeless, racking up a half-dozen Number 1 singles and ten Top 10 hits with a sound that honors his heroes. Joe Nichols has earned multi-platinum success, three Grammy nominations, a CMA award, an ACM trophy.
Opening the evening on stage will be country music singer/songwriter Nate Venturelli from northwest Indiana.
Nate’s new single, “Union Man,” has more than 125,000 streams, 56,000 on YouTube Music alone in a little more than 10 months. Nate is in rotation on Country Radio 105.5 FM from Chicago to South Bend. He has the most phone requests of any artist on that station and has been in rotation for more than 42 weeks.
Arrive hungry and choose from as many as nine food vendors every week. While at the Village Green, walk over to the Historical Museum Open House and Craft and Vintage Fair from 6-8 p.m.
