Stapleton is the first name to be announced for the 2017 Country on the River line-up. More performers will be announced in the coming months.

Beginning with the first festival in 2010, Country on the River has become one of the best country music parties in the Midwest. Featuring a great annual talent lineup, a free Thursday night show, on-site camping and a scenic rural backdrop, Country on the River has all of the makings of an event that cannot be missed.

Country on the River is Wisconsin’s premier country music and camping festival in beautiful Prairie du Chien, featuring more than a dozen bands over three days. Country on the River will take place for the eighth time on August 3-5, 2017.

Chris Stapleton is the first name to be released as a performer for the 2017 Country on the River music festival. Stapleton is the first artist to win Album of the Year, Male Vocalist of the Year and New Artist of the Year at the same awards at the CMA Awards.
