The Sioux Empire Fair is excited to welcome Travis Denning & Conner Smith to the Billion Automotive Main Stage at the Sioux Empire Fair on Tuesday, August 6, 2024.
A native of Warner Robins, Georgia, singer/songwriter and Mercury Nashville recording artist Travis Denning first made waves with the release of his Top 40 debut single “David Ashley Parker From Powder Springs,” which has also been certified Gold by the RIAA. Denning celebrated his first No.1 and Platinum certified single with the “shadowy” (Rolling Stone) “After A Few,” from his debut EP Beer’s Better Cold, which debuted in the Top 20 of Billboard's Country Albums chart.
Last summer Denning released the EP, Might As Well Be Me. Crafted for the stage with all of Denning's hard-charging energy and mischief-making signatures intact, the collection also captures an artist maturing. With almost 750 million streams worldwide, Denning has been spotlighted for his head-turning sound and is making his mark within the industry, being previously selected as one of CRS New Faces, an Opry NextStage recipient and a CMA KixStart Artist.
Just 23 years old and already a seasoned veteran of Nashville’s elite songwriting community, Conner Smith has emerged as one of Country’s most hotly-anticipated new artists – one knows the past can still inspire the present, and good things come to those who wait.
An uncommon talent mixing prime-of-life passion with old-soul perspective, the young singer-songwriter has spent 15 years matching a honeyed vocal to propulsive hints of bluegrass and the warmth of ‘90s Country, an instant-classic sound infused with riveting modern appeal. Moving Country forward while remembering its all-natural roots, his long-anticipated full-length debut SMOKY MOUNTAINS, arriving January 26, 2024 via The Valory Music Co., is meant to stand the test of time – and just like a mountain, took a while coming to fruition. But according to Smith, it was worth the effort.
Travis Denning & Conner Smith are FREE with paid fair admission on the Billion Automotive Main Stage! Fair admission is $10 for adults, $5 for children ages 6 - 12, and free for children ages 5 and under. PIT Passes are $25 in advance per person, per event, and will be on sale June 3, online only, at www.siouxempirefair.com.
