Country comes to St. Charles area

The Chesterfield Amphitheater will be hosting Thomas Mac and Cooper Alan next month. Both men are big names in the county music scene.

Having made surges on the internet, Copper Alan is a rising star who built a following of more than 8.5 million people and his tracks have recorded more than 80 million streams. What makes his story especially impressive is that he was able to do this without signing for a record label.

Cooper was born in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. While in high school and college he honed his skills playing at local bars all over the Carolinas. He and the band he played for gained fame for their high-energy performances. Bands can use flyer printing to promote their shows.

Thomas Mac is also an up-and-coming country music star. He shot onto the scene when a track he wrote went viral on the internet, and he moved to Nashville soon after in order to meet more people in the industry. Record labels took note of his talent and offered him his first record deal when he was 20 years old. His music is a blend of traditional and modern country music.

The two artists will be performing at the Chesterfield Amphitheater near St. Charles on July 16. Doors will open at 6:00 pm and general admission tickets are on sale for $25.
