Having seen Montgomery Gentry a couple of times at the New York State Fair over the years, I can tell you first hand that it's one big party of hits.  Picture people getting up to dance, singing all the words to the songs with big smiles on their faces. 

The award winning duo Montgomery Gentry is headlining the Hawk's Toyota Country Lights Festival, Friday July 22nd at NYSEG Stadium in downtown Binghamton.  If you were at last year's inaugural concert, you know how much fun it was partying with Frankie Ballard, Eric Paslay and all the other acts.

In addition to Montgomery Gentry, we will be announcing more acts in the coming weeks.  But right now, with ticket prices starting at $20 for reserved grandstand, you might want to pick up your tickets now while ticket prices are still low for field and VIP too.
