 Lynch whose recent single “Hell of a Night” is currently moving
up on the Billboard charts. The show will start at 7:30 with gates
opening at 6:30 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 8 in the Grandstand at the Logan
County Fair. Local favorite Brushville will again open the show.
Lynch, 29, who co-wrote his first single “Cowboys and Angels” became
a modern day country classic, ending the year as one of Billboard’s
Top 5 Country Songs of 2012. He quickly followed with “She Cranks My
Tractor” which reached #1 on GAC’s Top 20 Country Countdown and has
sold over 100,000 copies.
The Broken Bow Records artist combines traditional influence with an
edgy intensity that makes him one of today’s most successful young
artists.
Brushville is no stranger to the central Illinois music fans and was
the opening act at the 2014 Logan County Fair grandstand act.
Brushville is being sought out by the biggest and best events that
the industry has to offer, including Chicago’s Country Music
festival, Country Fest and Country Thunder in Wisconsin.

Brushville won the Battle for the Saddle at Nashville, Tennessee’s legendary
Wildhorse Saloon in early 2012. Out of the over 300 national bands that entered,
Brushville came out on top and was selected the winner by a panel of top
industry professionals including Michael Knox who is the one credited with
“discovering” talents such as Jason Aldean, John Rich and Gretchen Wilson.
Brushville also has a Lincoln connection with Kirk Ellis playing guitar and
fiddle.
