It was the “up-and-comers†night to shine Friday at the Victory Theatre when Tyler Farr and Weston Burt kicked off the Victory’s inaugural Summer Country Nights concert series. While both artists are fairly new to the touring scene and still building their catalogs, they have already accumulated a number of enthusiastic and devoted fans, as evidenced by the warm reception both received when they took the stage for their respective sets. The audience was treated to several solid hours of great country music and personal interaction from performers who already know how to work their crowd.
“Tyler Farr and Weston Burt gave us a great kick-off to this summer conert series,†said Victory Theatre General Manager Ben
Bolander. “Our goal is to provide really affordable entertainment from country artists who are on their way to becoming the Next
Big Thing, and we’re looking forward to the remaining two shows in August and September.â€
The Summer Country Nights at the Victory series, presented by VenuWorks and 93.5 The Wolf, continues with Charlie Worsham and Chris Stapleton on August 15 and concludes with No Justice on September 13. Tickets for both concerts can be purchased individually or as part of a two-show package from the Ford Center ticket office or Ticketmaster.com.
The Victory Theatre continues an active summer and fall schedule with upcoming shows that include “Weird Al†Yankovic – The Alpocalypse Tour July 27, Tommy Emmanuel September 20, and Don Williams October 17.
