About this concert
Montgomery Gentry's trademark sound of Southern Rock and country has earned over 20 charted singles, awards from the Country Music Association and the Academy of Country Music, and a Grammy nomination with undeniable, blue-collar anthems such as "Hell Yeah", "My Town", and "Hillbilly Shoes". Although Troy Gentry died in a helicopter crash in 2017, Eddie Montgomery and the Montgomery Gentry band continue to tour in honor of Gentry and the band's fans. Sponsored by: Higgs Welding

Montgomery Gentry Biography
When the two Kentucky boys—Eddie, is from Lancaster and Troy is from Lexington—first busted onto the national scene in 1999 with the defiant “Hillbilly Shoes” notice was served—country music had never seen a hard driving duo like this.
Despite the millions of albums sold, the sold out shows and the scores of awards, Montgomery Gentry remains in touch with its working class roots. “We are blue collar workers and we lived the songs that we sing,” says Troy. “Because of that, our fans are able to make the connection and when they hear our songs, they know we are singing with passion and we know what we are talking about.”
Make no mistake about it: Montgomery Gentry has secured a place in musical history with a unique blend of country, southern rock and Everly Brothers-like harmonies combined with relatable lyrics.
“We grew up on Charlie Daniels, Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson, Lynyrd Skynyrd and Merle Haggard,” Eddie says with conviction. “That’s who we are. We cut our teeth in the honky tonks and no matter what you try to do, we have to be us or it just doesn’t sound right.”
