(PASO ROBLES, CA) – The California Mid-State Fair is pleased to announce all the special
guests joining their stacked lineup this summer. Some dates do not include a special guest and
are noted below. Tickets for all the Grandstand Arena concerts are on sale now at
www.MidStateFair.com.
7/19/23 – Annie Bosko will open the show for Tim McGraw. A California farmer’s daughter and
the middle of five children, Annie Bosko has been praised by Rolling Stone magazine as an
artist to watch. From writing songs for legends like Willie Nelson, to performing onstage with
Adele and Darius Rucker, Annie has worked with the “greats”.
7/20/23 – Jon Foreman will open the show for Lauren Daigle. Jon is the lead singer and
founding member of the Grammy Award winning alt-rock band SWITCHFOOT. Jon's latest
release and first live album "Roll Tape: Live At Melody League Studios" is available now.
7/21/23 – Jet Black Roses will open the show for Sammy Hagar. Often described as rock and
roll with a country soul, Jet Black Roses combines the intensity of such rock legends as Tom
Petty and Aerosmith with the storytelling sensibilities of country stalwarts like George Strait and
Alan Jackson.
7/22/23 – Lou Gramm will open the show for The B-52’s. Gramm was the lead vocalist on all of
Foreigner's hit songs, including "Feels Like the First Time", "Cold as Ice", "Long, Long Way from
Home", "Hot Blooded", "Double Vision", "Blue Morning, Blue Day", "Head Games", "Dirty White
Boy", "Urgent", "Juke Box Hero", "Break It Up" and "Say You Will". He co-wrote most of the
songs for the band, which achieved two of its biggest hits with the ballads "Waiting for a Girl Like
You", which spent ten weeks at #2 on the 1981-82 American Hot 100, and "I Want to Know
What Love Is", which was a #1 hit internationally (US & UK) in 1985.
7/23/23 – Conner Smith will open the show for Luke Bryan (SOLD OUT). Just 22 years old
and already a seasoned veteran of Nashville’s elite songwriting community, Conner Smith has
become one of Country’s most hotly-anticipated new artists – an uncommon talent mixing
prime-of-life passion with old-soul perspective.
7/24/23 – T.I. will open the show for Nelly. Labeled the Jay-Z of the South by Pharrell Williams
and the creator of Trap Muzik, T.I. undoubtedly possesses all the qualities and has the
accolades to back them up as an artist, songwriter, philanthropist, and entrepreneur. With over
35 million followers on social media, 3 Grammy Awards and 4 #1 hit records, and 11 top ten hits
like “Dead and Gone”, “Live Your Life”, and "Whatever You Like” under his belt, it’s easy to see
why T.I. has enjoyed continued success as a recording and touring artist for the last 20 years.
7/25/23 – Ian Munsick will open the show for Parker McCollum. Breathing fresh Rocky
Mountain air into the Nashville music scene, Ian Munsick is pioneering a new brand of country.
The Wyoming-born singer / songwriter’s upbringing was a mix of working the ranch and working
crowds. Under the tutelage of their fiddle-playing father, Munsick and his two older brothers
grew up playing everything from bluegrass to The Beatles. Captivated by traditional lyrical truth
and the modern soundscape, Munsick followed his ear to Music City. The recent releases of
“Long Live Cowgirls” (with Cody Johnson), “More Than Me,” and “Horses & Weed” are ushering
in the next chapter of his musical saga...and fans are finding that, with Ian Munsick, western
country is reborn.
7/26/23 – Let’s get the party started with a Live DJ opening the show for PITBULL.
7/27/23 – Los Tucanes de Tijuana will not have an opening act and will take the stage at 7:30
pm.
7/28/23 – Styx will not have an opening act and will take the stage at 7:30 pm.
The 2023 California Mid-State Fair runs July 19 through July 30 and this year’s theme is “Shake,
Rattle & Roll!” Connect with them on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and TikTok.
