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.
