Kip Moore, the singer behind the number one smash single, “Somethin’ ‘Bout a Truck,” will take to the Deadwood Mountain Grand event center stage at 10 p.m., Friday July 26, following the award-winning Days of ’76 Rodeo.

Hailing from Tifton, Georgia, Moore has released four singles, "Mary Was the Marrying Kind", "Somethin' 'Bout a Truck", "Beer Money" and "Hey Pretty Girl". His album, “Up All Night,” was released last year.   

"Rising stars like Kip Moore bring an unparalleled level of energy and enthusiasm to the Deadwood Mountain Grand Event Center stage,” said Deadwood Mountain Grand Sales, Marketing and Event Director Susan Kightlinger. "He is part of a unique new country sound that we are proud to showcase during Deadwood’s Days of ’76 celebration.”

Signed to Universal Music Group, Kip Moore is an up-and-coming Country music sensation.  Moore’s style was influenced by Bruce Springsteen, Tom Petty, and Kris Kristofferson. He moved to Nashville after a brief stint in Hawaii, when a good friend encouraged him to take up songwriting full time.

Moore’s raw and rustic voice combines with compelling lyrics of honesty to create a unique sound that's simultaneously hypnotic and edgy. He paired up with songwriter Brett James, who produced his debut album, “Drive Me Crazy.”

Tickets for the Kip Moore concert go on sale for Deadwood Mountain Grand Rewards Center members at 10 a.m. Wednesday and to the general public at 10 a.m. Friday.
