Canada Day is sure to be boisterous as three Canadian acts and one American country music maverick join already announced headliner Dustin Lynch and Canadian sensation Tim Hicks. Since arriving in Nashville, Chase Rice has gained a following across North America through his energetic live shows and edgy sound and will have Trackside fans ready to ‘Ignite the Night!” Hockey player turned country singer-songwriter, Jojo Mason, will be sure to have his ‘It’s All Good’ attitude extend throughout the festival grounds. Ontario’s own Midnight Shine and Runaway Angel will round out the weekend’s festivities.
