Back by popular demand is the musical group Emerson Drive who performed at the Box Butte County Fair in 2003.

Fans have never had a difficult time relating to the explosively exciting band, whose live show is so engaging and entertaining that Shania Twain tapped them to open for her on her last major North American tour.

The concert will be held Saturday, August 9 at 8 p.m. at the grandstand.   Tickets will go on sale Monday, June 2.   Ticket prices will be announced in the near future.

"Our fans are so supportive and have been there for us from the very beginning. We're lucky to have them," explains Emerson Drive's bassist Patrick Bourque.

"The fans have been there since the success of our first 2 records but it's definitely our hits 'Fall Into Me,' 'I Should Be Sleeping' and 'Last One Standing,' that have connected us to so many people. We already have a good foundation for a fan base across the country andwe hope to continue to build on that with the music on this new album.

Emerson Drive's history is based on a solid foundation which garnered them their loyal fans. The band emerged from Canada onto the Nashville country music scene in 2001 with their brand of hip country combined with stellar musicianship.
