Luke Bryan, Toby Keith, Zac Brown Band and Cole Swindell are set to headline the three-day fest in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, June 7-10, 2018. For more information and to see the lineup, visit www.carolinacountrymusicfest.com.
“We are excited to announce this talented group of artists who represent a broad range of country music, from iconic singer-songwriter Deana Carter to ACM nominated trio Runaway June to fresh newcomers Kasey Tyndall, Kennedy Fitzsimmons and Stephanie Quayle,” said Bob Durkin, president of Carolina Country Music Fest.
On International Women’s Day and every day, CCMF strives to offer a platform for the many incredible female artists in the country genre, with today’s announced artists featuring rising newcomers such as Runaway June (whose current single “Wild West” hit No. 40 on the Country Airplay Chart), Quayle, Tyndall, and Fitzsimmons, as well as Carter, who scored with such iconic hits as “We Danced Anyway” and “Strawberry Wine,” which netted her the CMA Award for Single Record of the Year in 1997.
