Country music artist Jerrod Niemann will headline, Friday, August 30 on the Main Stage at the annual Last Fling Festival Labor Day weekend in downtown Naperville.
Niemann’s debut album, Judge Jerrod & the Hung Jury, landed the Number No. 1 spot in 2010 delivering the No. 1 platinum-selling #1 hit “Lover, Lover” and the Top 5 single “What Do You Want.”
Niemann’s newest album, Free The Music, is a journey through a multitude of musical styles, each of the 12 songs written or co-written to pay homage to the instrumental sounds which helped to shape the country music genre. His song, “Get on Up” employs a unique guitar riff and well-fitting Mellotron. “Real Women Drink Beer,” combines elements of reggae with the Bakersfield Sound, “Honky Tonk Fever” with its jazz horns and varying tempos, and “I’m All About You,” is a laid-back love song featuring GRAMMY-winning vocalist Colbie Caillat. The knockout ballad and Niemann’s current chart-rising single, “Only God Could Love You More,” truly showcases Jerrod’s voice for the instrument it is.
