Little bit country, little bit rock n’ roll at Tailgate Music Fest

It’s a chance to enjoy a couple of musical genres.

The third annual Tailgate Music Festival Sept. 25-26 will feature a night of rock and another dedicated to country.

Ralph Spoltore of organizer Spottydawg Productions said proceeds support the West Perth Village Seniors Community, which provides care and service.

“Our headliner for the rock night is The Trews, they’re one of my favorite bands and I was very selfish in this booking because I’ve seen them 15-20 times and I wanted to see them again.”

The rock night includes Stratford’s Small Town Strip Club, Feral Minks, Dave Ward Band, Riley Thompson and Andy Colonico.

The country concert will feature headliner James Barker Band, the Prairie States, Mitch Zorn, Haley McNeil, Rob Fitzgerald, Angelica Appleman, Braydon Hall, and Bernie Hale.

Early bird tickets are available for both nights.
