Clay County Fair announces grandstand schedule change

For health-related reasons within the band, The Mavericks' upcoming show on Monday, Sept. 9, at the Clay County Fair has been canceled. Clay County Fair last week announced Lonestar as the new grandstand act to replace them on the same date.

Not every musician has the opportunity to revisit and even potentially improve upon their biggest hits. But on the forthcoming "TEN to 1" record, the award-winning band Lonestar with Dean Sams (keyboards, acoustic guitar, background vocals), Michael Britt (lead guitarist, background vocals), Keech Rainwater (drums), and Drew Womack (lead vocals, guitar) are taking a fresh look at all 10 of their chart-topping country songs. Such talent has contributed to the band winning many of music's top honors, including Academy Of Country Music awards for New Vocal Group in 1996, Single and Song of The Year in 2000, along with Humanitarian of The Year in 2002. They also won Country Music Association's Vocal Group of the Year and International Artist Achievement award in 2001. All told, Lonestar have sold more than 10.5 million records since their formation.

The Jorgensens will take the stage as planned. Peers and critics recognize them as one of the Twin Cities' best original bands. They incorporate blues, soul, jazz, and rock into a unique style they have coined as American soul. They have played countless shows and outdoor festivals and have multiple awards under their belt from the Minnesota Music Awards.
