Surprising Opening Acts At Coachman Park In Clearwater


Summer kickoff concerts at Coachman Park in Clearwater are a QYK tradition. It used to be known as “Fun ‘N Sun” but now it’s the Bay 2 Beach Music and Arts Festival. But it’s same great country event QYK listeners have enjoyed for years.

While some of the biggest names in country like Jason Aldean have been headliners, it’s fun to me to take a look back and see some of the bands that have played to tiny audiences because they were the opening act! Many plan their day out and only show up for the main act, but with QYK concerts over the years, you’d have been smart to get there early or you would have missed Brett Eldredge, The Band Perry, Kip Moore, Jon Pardi and Chris Janson.

I talked with Steve Austin, who’s been bringing the country superstars on stage for years at Coachman Park.
