Turning Stone Adds Dustin Lynch Concert

2024 is already shaping up to be an amazing year for Country concerts in New York!

Even though we have a few months to go in 2023, when it comes to Country shows we are hitting that slower spot of the year as we begin to reflect on 2023 and what was another amazing year of shows.

And while the end of summer may bring a tinge of sadness, we already have a great schedule of shows to look forward to in 2024 to get us through winter! Luke Combs, Morgan Wallenb, George Strait, and Chris Stapleton will all be at MetLife stadium next year, and now we are starting to get some Upstate New York concert announcements in the mix as well.

GNA Hotshots - A Look Back at the Summer of Country Music in Upstate NY

It was an incredible summer for country shows in the area, and we were fortunate to have some of the biggest stars in the industry come to the Capital Region.

Things started to warm up this summer when Thomas Rhett and Cole Swindell brought the Hometeam Tour to MVP Arena in June and wrapped when The Chief, Eric Church came to town for the first time in a decade with rising superstar Lainey Wilson.

But MVP Arena and SPAC weren't the only venues rocking out in the summer of 2023, Jackson Dean and Dylan Scott played Pinehaven Country Club in Guilderland, Lee Brice hit up a historic venue in Albany, and country legend Tracy Byrd played the Schoharie County Sunshine Fair.

GNA was there for all of these shows, plus a whole lot more, and our amazing photographer Claude Sawyer was front and center, to bring you all the action from the pit.
