Lincoln Amphitheatre and 101 Country WBDC are holding an opening act contest for the August 10 Walker County show.
The Lincoln Amphitheatre and 101 Country WBDC FM have partnered to host a contest. The winner will open for Warner Music Nashville’s Walker County in Lincoln City on Saturday, August 10.
“The Lincoln Amphitheatre is one of the area’s premiere outdoor entertainment destinations,” said Marc Steczyk, the facility’s director. “Our PA and sound rig is top-notch, our crew is professional, and this is a potential opportunity for a local or regional band to play in an environment unlike any other in our area.”
Contest Rules
The contest rules are relatively simple: email a YouTube or other video-sharing service link of your act/band performing live (solo, duo, trio, full band, etc.) to lincolnamphitheatre@visitindiana.com with a subject line of Walker County Opening Act Contest (or similar). If you have trouble submitting, entrants also can call the Lincoln Amphitheatre box office at 812-937-2329.
Entries are due Friday, August 2, and the winner will be announced on Tuesday, August 6.
