Two Huge Acts Are Coming!

On Friday, July 25, the Jackson County Fair will welcome...

Sawyer Brown

Known for their electrifying live performances and decades of chart-topping hits, has been a cornerstone of country music since their rise to fame in the 1980s. With classics like "Some Girls Do," "The Race Is On," "Step That Step," and "Thank God for You," this award-winning band continues to captivate audiences with their infectious energy and heartfelt songs.

Joining Sawyer Brown is Confederate Railroad.

A band known for seamlessly fusing Southern rock with country, they deliver a sound that's equal parts rowdy and heartfelt. With fan-favorite hits like "Trashy Women," "Queen of Memphis," "Jesus and Mama," and "Daddy Never Was the Cadillac Kind," their performances exude raw authenticity and electrifying energy, celebrating the essence of life, love, and Southern pride.
