Darius Rucker

*Special Concert Event* As the frontman of Hootie & The Blowfish, Darius Rucker was one of the most popular frontmen in mainstream pop/rock during the mid-’90s.  The band’s debut album, Cracked Rear View, was virtually inescapable in 1995, eventually selling more than 16 million copies, winning 2 Grammy Awards, and becoming one of the most successful albums of all time.  Rucker signed with Capitol Records Nashville in 2007 and released his country debut, Learn to Live, in 2008 which landed at No. 1 on the Billboard Country Albums Chart. His first record garnered three consecutive No. 1 singles and earned him the CMA New Artist of the Year Award. When Rucker returned to the studio with Frank Rogers to record his sophomore release, he penned 77 songs for the album with the last song written becoming the lead single, “Come Back Song.” Rucker’s shows center around the music found on his country albums, but occasionally he will embrace his Hootie & The Blowfish heritage by turning “Let Her Cry” into a very sad, slow country tune or rely on the acoustic intro to “Hold My Hand” to really rile up the crowd before the sultry lyrics pour out.  This is as assigned seating event.  Tickets start at $45.  A handling fee will be applied to all ticket purchases.  Due to an expected high attendance for this event, large items such as coolers, blankets, umbrellas, picnic baskets, and folding tables will not be permitted inside the venue.
