Drake Milligan will be performing at the Stanislaus County Fair this summer.
Milligan will bring his infectious energy and chart-topping hits to the Modelo Free Variety Stage at the fairgrounds on Friday evening, July 11.
“Drake Milligan is a phenomenal talent and we’re thrilled to have him perform on the Modelo Free Variety Stage,” said Fair spokesman, Jose Pina. “We’re proud to continue offering our community world-class entertainment, and we can’t wait for everyone to experience Drake’s performance.”
Milligan burst onto the national music stage entering the Billboard Emerging Artists Chart at #5 after dominating iTunes with his debut album, Dallas/Fort Worth, charting back-to-back number one hits on the iTunes Country Songs Chart, number one on iTunes All-Genre Chart and reclaimed the number one spot on iTunes Country Albums Chart.
A student of classic country music with the swagger of early rock, the Fort Worth native cites George Strait and Elvis Presley as musical heroes and his unique twist of traditional country has been embraced by fans, peers and the media alike.
Milligan has performed on the Kelly Clarkson Show, The Grand Ole Opry, Stagecoach and CMA Music Festival.
His latest EP release titled, Jukebox Songs, was released last year with four new tracks. The acclaimed “Artist to Watch” (CMT, Pandora, etc.) also returned to his primetime TV roots for a performance on the America’s Got Talent spin-off show, America’s Got Talent: Fantasy League and hit the road alongside Cody Johnson on his 2024 U.S. arena tour.
Currently on his “2025 Jukebox Songs World Tour,” Milligan will be on the road throughout the year, opening for Lainey Wilson, Luke Bryan, and Blake Shelton
