Louisville, KY. You’ve seen them on Leno, Kimmel and Conan, now you can see Thompson Square perform live at the Waterfront Jam Presented by the John R. Elliott HERO Campaign. The FREE concert is set for Friday, April 24, at Kroger’s Fest-a-Ville. Special guest A Thousand Horses will open the show at 8 p.m. Admission is free with a 2015 Pegasus Pin.
Thompson Square has taken the country music industry by storm with a trio of hit singles including “I Got You”, “Glass”, and the No. 1 double-platinum-selling “Are You Gonna Kiss Me Or Not”. The married musical duo, Keifer and Shawna Thompson, have received two GRAMMY nominations and toured with the likes of Jason Aldean, Lady Antebellum, and Luke Bryan. Thompson Square offer fans an intimate concert experience that “Just Feels Good” and is sure to delight.
A Thousand Horses has an undeniable energy, fueled by smooth vocals and compelling lyrics. The Nashville-based band is a fresh fusion of classic sounds – that of Lynyrd Skynyrd, the Rolling Stones, and the Allman Brothers with a distinct blend of country, rock, soul, and blues. Following the success of their chart topping single, “Smoke”, which set a record for the highest debut by a new act when it opened at No. 28 on the Country Aircheck radio chart, A Thousand Horses is set to release their first studio album, Southernality, in June.
The concert is sponsored by the John R. Elliott HERO Campaign and Miller Lite, along with Media Sponsor 97.5 WAMZ.
