One of the most successful and beloved country crooners of all time will be celebrated at Maquoketa's Ohnward Fine Arts Center on June 17 when recording artist Alan Turner performs The Gambler: The Ultimate Kenny Rogers Tribute Show, a musical journey through the career of the American icon who has sold more than 120 million albums worldwide and racked up two dozen number-one hit singles, among them "Lady," "Islands in the Stream," "Lucille," and, of course, "The Gambler."

Touring in support of his 2022 hit Livin' My Best Life, CMT Music Award winner Dylan Scott headlines a June 16 concert at East Moline venue The Rust Belt, the U.K.'s Culture Fix insisting that the artist's latest "presents all the facets that make Dylan one of country’s strongest rising talents: soaring when tackling high-octane, feel-good country with a sense of charm and swagger; yet managing to deliver a sense of sincere emotional conviction in the album’s quieter more intimate moments."

Hailed by Americana UK for her "distinctive sound and her measured delivery of a lyric," rock, country, and Americana singer/songwriter Jolie Holland headlines a June 12 concert at Davenport's Raccoon Motel, the artist's album The Living & the Dead having been lauded by Pitchfork as a work that "packs a full and commanding wallop," as well as "a mini-manifesto on how to weld varied American sounds together and also f---ing rock at the same time."

Currently touring in support of his most recent releases Unjust Intonation and The Hand as Dealt, multi-instrumentalist and Joshua Tree artist Derek Monypeny plays a June 10 concert at Rock Island venue Rozz-Tox, the musician lauded by Zen Effects for crafting "breathtaking compositions - stunning in their simplicity and fascinating in their meditative and even mind-altering power."
