From forming a teenage garage band through to striding the stage alongside several of the world's greatest guitarists, Robert Cray's story is one of struggle and commitment—struggle and commitment that led to Cray enjoying phenomenal success: selling millions of albums and countless concert tickets, winning five Grammy Awards, being inducted into the Blues Hall of Fame, receiving the Americana Music Lifetime Achievement Award, and designing two signature-model Fender guitars. Yet for Cray what's always mattered most is the music. Every note he plays counts; every song he sings is delivered as if it is his last. Integrity and intensity are what have guided Cray's musical career. His commitment to making music of the highest standard has won Cray both a loyal audience and the respect of many of popular music's most legendary figures.

SEE HIM LIVE ON WEDNESDAY JULY 1ST AT 6:30PM AT SNOW BOWL
A rural Albertan hailing from the foothills of the Rocky Mountains with a long family lineage of ranchers and rodeo people, Lund is about as authentic as they come, and equally as hard to define. The western Canadian singer-songwriter is an elusive artist—onstage, offstage, and in the studio—seamlessly weaving between the outlaw country, Western, and indie-folk realms with an honest curiosity and rowdy devotion to each. He was raised with the tried and true DIY sentiment of “if you want something done, you gotta do it yourself” launching his career recording in his basement, printing his own shirts, booking his own tours, being his own manager and publicist… whatever it took to get it done. He toured for years with the indie-metal band the smalls, and later turned his sights to writing Western songs, creating a unique and quirky hybrid writing style along the way. He has received multiple domestic and international award nominations and wins. In2022, Lund won his 14th career Canadian Country Music Award and made his debut at the historic Grand Ole Opry. His album of originals, El Viejo, was released in February 2024.

Largely self-taught and driven by instinct, feel, and a deep connection to song, Rowan built a career that would make him one of the most respected figures in country music. A five-time CMA Musician of the Year, he has played on more than 15,000 recording sessions, contributing to iconic recordings and film soundtracks alike. His work spans an extraordinary range of artists, including Chris LeDoux, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Olivia Newton-John, Sting, Neil Diamond, and many others, always with a focus on elevating the music rather than the spotlight.
Rowan's impact extends beyond performance. As a producer, his first major project, Man with a Memory by Joe Nichols, earned a Grammy nomination for Country Album of the Year, a rare debut that speaks to both his ear for talent and his commitment to authenticity.
Since 2000, Brent has returned to the Pavilion each summer, inviting friends and collaborators to join him onstage. Over the years, those guests have included Tanya Tucker, Guy Clark, Joe Nichols, Clay Walker, and many more.
Be part of the celebration, an evening shaped by the music, friendships, and stories at the heart of Rowan's extraordinary career.
