January 23, 2023

Both groups will play at the region’s premiere venue on September 15th.

EPIC Events is excited to announce southern rockers 38 Special and record setter Elle King in concert on the MIDCO Stage at Essentia Health Plaza at The Lights on Friday, September 15th at 7 p.m.  

About 38 Special

After more than four decades, 38 SPECIAL continues to bring their signature blast of Southern Rock to over 100 cities a year. At each show, thousands of audience members are amazed by the explosive power of the band’s performance. Their many Gold and Platinum album awards stand in testament to the endurance of a legendary powerhouse.

With sales in excess of 20 million, most associate the band with their arena-rock pop smashes, “Hold On Loosely,” “Rockin’ Into the Night,” “Caught Up in You,” “Fantasy Girl,” “If I’d Been the One,” “Back Where You Belong,” “Chain Lightnin’,” “Second Chance,” and more – Timeless hits that remain a staple at radio, immediately recognizable from the first opening chord, and paving the way to their present-day touring regimen.

For 38 Special onstage, it is a celebration of camaraderie and brotherhood, a precision unit bringing the dedication and honesty to a long history of classic songs, as well as surprisingly fresh new material. Since 1976, the band has released more than 15 albums. And from the start, they’ve toured relentlessly, bringing their signature brand of ‘muscle and melody’ to fans worldwide.

About Elle King

New York. London. LA. Firebrand. Punk. Renegade. Bold faced icon. Startling songwriter. Grammy nominee. Pop sensation. Academy of Country Music and Country Music Association Award winner. Record setter. Brash live force. Brazen recording artist. Spider monkey on a tear. What if the story began with a banjo? With a residency trying to figure out writing songs. Perhaps a high gloss, but busted life and ultimately a secessionist raising in Jackson, Ohio? No wonder Elle King is hotter than a pepper sprout.

She recorded “Different for Girls” with roots/country force Dierks Bentley, which won the CMA’s Vocal Event of The Year. “I didn’t know who he was,” she admits. “But my brother was like, ‘Are you KIDDING? He’s so cool! You must do this.’ So, I did… and Dierks changed my life. He and (manager) Mary Hilliard Harrington opened so many doors, taught me so much about how to do this.”

Indeed, the Bentley/Harrington vortex proved an on-ramp to country viability. On Come Get Your Wife, Bentley returns for the relationship resuscitating “Worth A Shot,” while her high octane whirling and thumping throwdown “Drunk (And I Don’t Wanna Go Home)” with Miranda Lambert has already scored a 2021 ACM Award and CMA Vocal Event nomination and set streaming records.
