Country star in Vegas for two performances

One of country music’s most popular stars will be in Las Vegas soon.

Brad Paisley, a native of West Virginia, grew up with country music, which he had been playing most of his life. He got his start by singing at family get-togethers, and by the time he was a teen, he was performing weekly on local radio stations.

Paisley was only 26 when he dropped “Who Needs Pictures,” his debut album. To date he has released 12 studio albums, of which seven have been certified either Gold or Platinum. He also has released 46 singles, 43 music videos, three compilation albums, and had 10 other songs reach the charts. In total, 21 of his singles made it to No. 1.

He has also won numerous awards including two American Music Awards, three Grammys, and received the highest honor in country music, induction into the Grand Ole Opry. He was inducted into the Opry in 2001, which made him the youngest person to achieve this honor.

He is also an author and actor, and tours frequently, entertaining audiences with his blend of humor and world-class musicianship. A review says:

“Sheer brilliance. From the second Brad bounded on stage . . . he had the whole crowd on their feet dancing and singing along to every song.”


Paisley will be at the Encore Theatre at Wynn Las Vegas on April 14 and 15, at 8:00 pm both days. Concerts like this can benefit if promoters use poster printing to create suitable advertising for the show.
