Bentley, Urban headline Seven Peaks
Set to take place Sept. 3-5 in Buena Vista, Col., the fest also will feature Kip Moore, Old Crow Medicine Show, Randy Houser, Hot Country Knights, Clay Walker, Travis Denning, Ingrid Andress, Molly Tuttle, Mark Chesnutt, Caitlyn Smith, Hailey Whitters, Pam Tillis, Callista Clark, Jackson Dean, Ray Fulcher, Willie Jones, Caroline Jones, Rapidgrass, Reyna Roberts, Payton Smith and Aydamn will also perform. Hot Country Knights is a side project of Bentley's.
Three-day passes go on sale beginning June 18 at noon eastern time.
The fest, which Bentley started in 2018, was cancelled last year due to COVID-19.
"Getting the green light to book artists and plan our third annual Seven Peaks was the single best piece of news I've gotten in the last year," said Bentley. "It is my favorite weekend of the year, and I know every fan and artist that has been there will tell you the same. It's the only time my band and crew ever show up to a gig a week early too...because we can't wait to be out there with our friends and fans soaking up the Colorado sunshine and mountain vibes."

On the personal front, he lost his father and added to his family, clearly affecting the subject matter of his latest. On the musical front, he traded long-time producer Brett Beavers, producer of every disc except "Up on the Ridge," for Ross Copperman, who has enjoyed more success as a writer, including several previous tracks for Bentley.

Dierks Bentley takes a left, turn, sort of, on his fifth studio disc. Bentley has built a solid reputation as a country artist with a slew of hits and catchy songs with edge.
