Merchants and Music Festival Headline Bands Announced

The annual festival in Fort Thomas is shaping up quite nicely! The festival will take place on September 27th this year at Tower Park. Bands announced; Dustin Lynch, Frankie Ballard and Trick Pony! 

Dustin Lynch is currently on tour with Keith Urban and was nominated for Song of the Year, Single of the Year and Breakthrough Video of the Year by the Country Music Awards. He isn't very hard on the eyes either.

Frankie Ballard has appeared on the Grand Ole Opry, played packed arenas opening for Kenny Chesney and been on major tours with Taylor Swift and Bob Seger. He also won Kenny Chesney's Next Big Star competition in 2008.

Trick Pony has recently reunited after a 6 year split. All 3 members had a go at solo careers but realized after being reunited for a benefit show that they had it right the first time. 

More bands are expected to be released next week. Stay tuned to CincyMusic.com for updates!
