ALDEAN’S CONCERT AT RIVERBEND HIGHLIGHTS YEARLONG CELEBRATION

 

Jason Aldean announced on The Big Dave Show that his concert at Riverbend Music Center on Thursday, August 22 will be the official B-105 50th Birthday Bash. Along with Kane Brown and Dee Jay Silver on the bill, is Northern Kentucky native and Academy of Country Music (ACM) nominated, Carly Pearce. Carly grew up listening to B-105 and dreamed of one day being played on the station and performing on Riverbend’s stage. It’s two birthday wishes come true. Tickets go on sale Friday, April 5 at 10:00 a.m. through Riverbend.org.
