Lake Winnepesaukah Announces 2009 Jukebox Junction Concert Schedule Celebrate the arrival of summer with a toe-tappin’, hand-clappin’, fun time with friends and family at Lake Winnepesaukah Amusement Park. “Right now is when patrons want every possible value for their entertainment dollar,” offers Talley Green of Lake Winnepesaukah. “The Jukebox Junction Concert Series at Lake Winnie delivers that to all of our guests!” The concert series, free with admittance to Lake Winnepesaukah, combines a full day at the South’s favorite family amusement park with two free performances during the day by legendary and popular, up-and-coming Country Music artists on the Jukebox Junction stage! Lake Winnepesaukah kicks off its annual Jukebox Junction Concert series on Sunday, May 31, with country music sensation Jimmy Wayne. Character, creativity and an unbridled passion for life infuse Jimmy Wayne’s music and reverberate through every track on Do You Believe Me Now, his debut on the Valory Music Company. “It’s definitely a change,” Jimmy says of his new effort. “The record that I put together has only two ballads on it and that’s it. Everything else is up-tempo. I spent three years trying to find these songs that just really set me apart." Country music legend John Anderson returns to the Jukebox Junction Stage on Sunday, June 28. The John Anderson story is about dedication to craft without sacrificing one’s best instincts, about giving people what they paid to hear over the course of thousands of shows and a long trail of gold and platinum albums. Past, present, and future, John Anderson represents everything that’s right with country music, matters both simple and vastly complicated. On Sunday, July 12, country music superstar Keith Anderson will perform. The release of his second album C’MON! finds Anderson, the Grammy-nominated songwriter in fine form. He co-wrote 10 of the 11 songs, paring with some of Nashville’s top tunesmiths. “I’m just such a social person that I love people and working together with them,” explains the Oklahoma native. The album’s current single, I Still Miss You, was written by Anderson, Tim Nichols and Jason Sellers and is one of his fasting rising songs to date. “More than just writing a breakup song, we made it more a universal song of missing someone no longer in your life,” Anderson says. “You always hope to write a song that touches people.” The Lost Trailers will bring their unique sound to the Jukebox Junction Stage on Sunday, July 26. The Lost Trailers came together naturally, matured creatively, perform explosively and have poured all of that into their new album, Holler Back. “Anyone who has ever seen us live is going to hear the first 15 seconds of Holler Back and say ‘There’s The Lost Trailers. Those are the guys I saw open for Chesney or open for Sugarland’,” says band member Stokes Nielson. “Music is important and has a lasting quality,” adds lead vocalist Ryder Lee. “But music should be fun too, there needs to be a balance. Holler Back is a fun song that captures the element of our live show which is really important to us as well.” Don’t miss the Eli Young Band performing on Sunday, August 2. The Eli Young Band’s music has all the hallmarks of youth: passion, energy, and excitement. The band’s story is the definition of commitment: eight years spent honing its sound while building to the release of its first national album, Jet Black & Jealous. The album’s driving sound and never-say-die lyrical core capture the free-wheeling nature of their concerts, which have built them a solid base of fans. “We wanted to have an album,” drummer Chris Thompson says, “that really sounds like what we’re doing every night out on the road without being a ‘live’ album.” In what has become a Lake Winnie tradition, local favorites Confederate Railroad will conclude the concert series on Sunday, September 6. Few acts have carved as distinctive a niche in modern musical history as Confederate Railroad. With their high-energy combination of honky-tonk rockers, sensitive ballads, and offbeat humor, they have created a unique identity that has brought them chart success, multi-platinum sales, and continued popularity as a road band. Lake Winnepesaukah opens for the 2009 season on Saturday, April 18. All Jukebox Junction concerts are at 3:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m. and are free with admittance to Lake Winnepesaukah Amusement Park.
