DAVENPORT, IOWA (July 7, 2026) — Dynasty Entertainment LLC is thrilled to announce Country Legends in Concert Starring T G Sheppard and David Frizzell at the Adler Theatre on October 21, 2026; the ultimate Country Legends Spectacular!

Country music icon T G Sheppard is celebrating fifty years in country music. Ranked among the top 100 country artists of all time by Billboard Magazine, Sheppard’s first N° 1 hit single, “Devil in The Bottle” was released in October of 1974. The song quickly climbed the charts, claiming the top spot on the US country singles chart for one week and remaining on the charts for a total of ten weeks. This hit laid the foundation for Sheppard’s incredible career, marking the first of his 22 Number One hits, which include classics like “Last Cheater’s Waltz,” “I’ll Be Coming Back for More,” “Do You Want to Go to Heaven,” “Party Time,” “Only One You,” “I Loved ‘Em Every One,” “Slow Burn,” and more!

“Over fifty years ago, I had no idea the career journey I started would still be going strong today,” shares Sheppard.

“It’s been the most incredible and rewarding trip, and I’m happy to say the highs have far outweighed the lows. I still have to pinch myself to make sure this isn’t just a dream. Every day, I thank God and the fans for blessing me with such an amazing life and allowing me to continue doing what I love. I hope you’ll join me on the 50th Anniversary Tour and sing along to many of the 22 #1 hits I’ve been fortunate enough to achieve. I am humbled beyond words.”

Special Guest Opener will be singer-songwriter David Frizzell!

David Frizzell is one of the greatest voices in country music with a haunting resemblance to his older brother, the ultimate stylist, Lefty Frizzell. Both share that raw, forlorn quality that is essential to the interpretation of traditional country themes, but David’s voice is even more resonant and nuanced; a perfect instrument for conveying the deepest emotion of every lyric.

He scored a huge chart-topping hit with “I’m Gonna Hire a Wino to Decorate Our Home.” The record is a country-music standard, and has been featured on CMT’s 40 Greatest Drinking Songs in Country Music, making N° 17 in the countdown, and also making N° 6 in CMT’s countdown of the 100 Greatest Duets is “You're the Reason God Made Oklahoma.”

Along with his CMA awards, Frizzell has won numerous performing and recording trophies from the Academy of Country Music, Billboard, and Music City News.

He has been nominated for three Grammys, both as part of Frizzell and West and as a solo artist. Tickets will start at $43 and go on sale Friday, July 1, 10AM, at the Adler Theatre Box Office, open Monday through Friday, 10AM-5PM, or online at Ticketmaster.com.
