Classic country powerhouse John Anderson is hitting the road with special acoustic performances at Lee Creek Tavern inside Cherokee Casino & Hotel Roland on Saturday, July 29, at 8 p.m.
The show is free and open to the public ages 21 and up.
John Anderson grew up in Apopka, Fla., and remembers humming along to the tune of his father’s boat motor. He started his music career performing solo around the state while working construction before moving to work on the roofing crew for the new Grand Ole Opry House. That’s where he landed a recording contract.
After charting modestly in the late ‘70s, Anderson scored No. 1 hits in the ‘80s with “Wild and Blue,” “Swingin’” and “Black Sheep.” After a brief career lull, he staged a major comeback in 1992 as “Starlight Tequila Night” became his first No. 1 single in nine years. That momentum carried him into the 2000s, giving him 60 charting country singles in four consecutive decades.
