The back end of the year is quickly turning into to one of the best stretches of Country shows the Capital Region has ever seen!

The concert floodgates have officially opened! The last couple of weeks have been full of amazing Country concert announcements. Lady A, Zac Brown Band, Kelsea Ballerini and many more have announced they are coming for shows this fall. And now the legend of Country legends is set to return to the Capital Region.

SPAC just announced the Outlaw Music Festival 2021 starring Willie Nelson and Family will return to Saratoga Springs Sunday, September 12th! The show will kick off at 5:15pm and the lineup will also feature Sturgill Simpson, Gov't Mule, and Margo Price. Willie is just the ultimate road warrior so it is no surprise as soon as the opportunity came to get his rolling festival back out to the people he took it! The great thing about this lineup too is the traditional Country representation, but you also get a great blues-based rock band in Gov't Mule. This lineup is perfect for a festival-style day at SPAC.

As you would expect, we have plenty of chances to win your free tickets. Listen all this week at 3:25pm for Willie Week with my Throwback Track to call in and win your way to the show.

Tickets go on sale this Thursday, May 27th at 10am. We can't wait to see you at ANOTHER show!

LOOK: Here are the 50 best beach towns in America

Every beach town has its share of pluses and minuses, which got us thinking about what makes a beach town the best one to live in. To find out, Stacker consulted data from WalletHub, released June 17, 2020, that compares U.S. beach towns. Ratings are based on six categories: affordability, weather, safety, economy, education and health, and quality of life. The cities ranged in population from 10,000 to 150,000, but they had to have at least one local beach listed on TripAdvisor. Read the full methodology here. From those rankings, we selected the top 50. Readers who live in California and Florida will be unsurprised to learn that many of towns featured here are in one of those two states.
