Oregon, The Prequel

In gearing up for the Willamette Country Music Festival on August 20th in Brownsville, OR the boys of Chance McKinney n' CrossWire are making the "pre" rounds through Portland and Roseburg this week.  Willamette Country Music Festival features JaneDear Girls, David Nail, Diamond Rio, Chance McKinney n' CrossWire, Sunny Sweeney, Steve Azar, Phil Vassar, Alan Jackson, The Harters, Amy Clawson, Little Big Town and Blake Shelton.

This week though, CMCW will touch base with The Ponderosa in Portland.  The Ponderosa is home to a plethora of National Touring acts including Brooks n' Dunn, Brad Paisley, James Otto and Garth Brooks to name a few.  Chance McKinney and the CrossWire fellas will bring their own version of country to The Ponderosa on Friday night beginning at 9pm. 

On Saturday, July 16th, Oregon's largest OUTDOOR PARTY to date will take place at The ZOO in Roseburg, OR.  Gates open at 6pm with support act Aces Wild taking the stage at 7pm.  Chance McKinney n' CrossWire will follow and take the party into the heart of the night.  Tickets are available at The Zoo, Idle Hour, Pro Car Stereo and The Scoredboard Tavern.  $10 in advance and $15 night of show.

Get ready for a week of CMCW Oregon!

Utah... Utah... Washington...

Chance and the boys of CrossWire are at it again.  Coming off a week in Washington with Dwight Yoakam, they'll head down to Utah for 2 shows and then finish off Father's Day Weekend with a show back in Washington.  "Yes, it's busy, but it's that time of year when we get to get OUT and see folks all over the West.  We're not bundled up inside doin' shows only on weekends in 21 and older joints.  To be honest, it's my favorite time of year and favorite types of shows," says Chance.

This Friday, the CMCW boys will hit the Uintah Valley playing Tabiona, UT at the Tabby Valley Centenial Park.  Opening act, Blue Saige, will take the stage at 6:30pm with Chance McKinney n' CrossWire to follow.  Tickets are $10 in advance and $15 at the gate.

Saturday night, the fellas will head down the road a stretch to South Jordan Utah to play CountryFest at the South Jordan City Park in South Jordan, UT.  Chance n' CrossWire will headline Saturday night at 8:30pm right up until the fireworks begin at 10pm.  Local group, Vocalocity will open the show and get the crowd fired up for the CMCW boys.

Sunday mornin' they fly to Marysville, WA for the Strawberry Festival.  Callie Cash will open the show and Chance will close it out from 2pm to 4pm on what we hope is a beautiful northwest day!

A "busy" week to say the least, but it's what they do... it's what they love.

Saturday, June 4th at the Tulalip Casino in Marysville, WA... Chance McKinney n' CrossWire (along with special guests Cloverdayle) will re-open the doors of the Canoes Caberet to COUNTRY!  It's been a long time since COUNTRY MUSIC has graced the Tulalip on a weekend night, but they finally figured out where their roots are so they're bringin' it back.

Be part of something special.  Show the Tulalip that the Northern Puget Sound region NEEDS more country venues.  By the way, it's not like your efforts will go un-rewarded.  Chance and the boys are bringin' 10 SETS of DWIGHT YOAKAM tickets with 'em for the show to give away... yep, just give away.  All you gotta do is show up and support your country!

Hmmm... I wonder if there's some NEW news afoot as well?!  "Am I The Only One" who thinks things might get a little "Sideways" if we let this news "Come A Little Closer" to leakin' out?
