Country Jam just wrapped up a few weeks ago, and promoters are already looking forward to 2025. Organizers have confirmed that Luke Bryan has been secured as one of the headliners for the 33rd annual festival next June.
Speaking of festivals, Jake Owen recently played Country Fest in Wisconsin. Afterword, he received a message from a disgruntled fan about his performance. The fan felt the show was lackluster, and they were truly disappointed they had traveled several states to see him and were let down. After posting an apology, Jake then received a message from non-other than Larry The Cable Guy. The redneck comedian gave Owen some sage advice saying, “Jake, next time play ‘Free Bird.’ I do it at all my shows and fans love it.” The “Homemade” singer later replied, “Dang, great idea my friend…Freee Bird!”
