Grammy and Academy Award nominated rock band Counting Crows have enchanted listeners worldwide with their intensely soulful and intricate take on timeless rock & roll. Exploding onto the music scene in 1993 with their multi-platinum breakout album, August and Everything After, the band has gone on to release seven studio albums, selling more than 20 million records worldwide, and is revered as one of the world’s most pre-eminent live touring rock bands. Joining Counting Crows is an American rock band from Boca Raton, Florida, led by singer Chris Carrabba of Dashboard Confessional.
Country star Darius Rucker first achieved multi-Platinum status in the music industry as lead singer and rhythm guitarist of the Grammy Award winning band Hootie & the Blowfish. Since releasing his first country album in 2008, Rucker has earned a whole new legion of fans with four No. 1 albums on the Billboard country chart, plus 10 No. 1 singles at country radio and 11 Gold, Platinum or multi-Platinum certified hits. In 2014 he won his third career Grammy Award for Best Solo Country Performance with his nine-time Platinum version of Old Crow Medicine Show’s Wagon Wheel, one of the top five best-selling country songs of all time.
“As the OLG stage at Fallsview Casino continues to attract more vibrant and impressive entertainment acts, the stage continues to get bigger and better,” says Cathy Price, Vice President Marketing, Niagara Casinos. “You won’t want to miss out on what promises to be an amazing summer filled of entertainment!”
