Event Details:
Uncle Kracker cuts right to the chase. He knows people want to kick back, forget about their troubles, and have a good time, so he's always willing to oblige. For over two decades, the multi-platinum artist born Matthew Shafer has consistently soundtracked such good times with his boldly breezy blend of country, pop, and rock spiked with a splash of hip-hop. The world initially met Uncle Kracker during his stint in Kid Rock's Twisted Brown Trucker Band, lending his songwriting and musical acumen to seven cuts off the RIAA diamond-certified Devil Without A Cause. However, fans fell in love with him on his solo debut Double Wide in 2000. It not only crashed the Top 10 of the Billboard 200 at #7, but it also picked up a double-platinum certification and paved the way for the gold-certified follow-up No Stranger To Shame [2002]. He has impressively notched #1 entries in three different genre lanes, topping Pop, Adult Contemporary, and Country charts. The platinum "Follow Me" clinched #1 in four countries, while the double-platinum "When The Sun Goes Down" [with Kenny Chesney] vaulted to #1 on the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks Chart. He made history with his cover of Dobie Gray's "Drift Away." It logged 28 consecutive weeks at #1 on Adult Contemporary Radio, earning "the most weeks atop any Billboard chart." Meanwhile, "Smile" shined across culture. It reached triple-platinum status and landed dozens of syncs, including a spot for The Office and a tribute montage to Regis Philbin on his final episode of Live With Regis & Kelly. Following 2012's country album Midnight Special, he served up singles such as "Endlessly," "Floatin'," and "No Time To Be Sober." Right on cue, Uncle Kracker continues to create new music with a brand-new album Coffee & Beer out now, featuring singles "Beach Chair," "Reason To Drink," and "Sweet 16."
