Live Nation To Launch New Country Music Festival in Michigan
Brian O’Connell
Live Nation’s Brian O’Connell has created a new three-day country music and camping festival, Faster Horses, set to launch in Brooklyn, Mich. on July 18-21, according to Billboard.
The festival will be held in a field adjacent to the Brooklyn International Speedway.
Faster Horses is the second country music festival produced by Live Nation and O’Connell; the first festival, Watershed, launched in 2012 at the Gorge amphitheater in Quincy, Wash.
Twenty-five artists have been booked for the show so far, though a formal announcement of the talent lineup is not expected until next week. Live Nation represents artists including Jason Aldean, Brad Paisley, Tim McGraw, Miranda Lambert, Dierks Bentley, Luke Bryan and others.
