Ernest, Nate Smith and Zac Brown Band

As the official beer sponsor of NASCAR, Busch Light has tapped Ernest, Nate Smith and the Zac Brown Band to headline the first three Busch Light Summer Music Series events of the year.

Ernest will play at Texas Motor Speedway May 2-4, Smith will headline at the Michigan International Speedway, and the Zac Brown Band will perform at the Chicago Street Race on July 5. Headliners for two other events at the Iowa Speedway on Aug. 2-3, and The Worldwide Technology Raceway in St. Louis Sept. 6-7, will be announced soon.

Busch Light has long been committed to bringing unforgettable experiences for sports and country music fans – from intimate one-night-only performances with top country music artists like Riley Green and Jordan Davis, to exhilarating moments on the NASCAR track, such as the 10-second Pit Stop Wedding.
