True North might get to play the Country Stampede Festival

Darius Rucker. And depending on how things go this Saturday, June 12, at the Golden Eagle Casino, in Horton, KS, local country/roots act True North may be joining them. 

The band has made it to the finals of a contest held by 94.5 Country, the winner of which gets a slot on the main stage. On Saturday, True North will play a 45-minute set of original music; afterward, fans in attendance will vote for their favorite act, and come the weekend of June 24-26, somebody will get to play in front of the 75,000 people projected to attend the festival. 

Their set starts at 8:10 p.m., but if you can’t make it to Horton, you can vote online here (in-person fan votes on Saturday count for ten times the online vote, but anything helps). There’s more information on True North’s blog.
