PELHAM—Grammy-nominated recording artist Will Hoge is hitting the road ‘strong’ and will stop by Oak Mountain State Fair in Pelham for a live show on April 25. For show details and ticket information, visit Oakmountainstatefair.com.

The critically-acclaimed singer-songwriter catapulted to success with his top-selling hit single “Strong,” which is featured in General Motor’s Chevy Silverado Ad campaign and has sold nearly 200,000 copies to date. Hoge’s single nearly broke Top 40 at Country Radio and his latest project “Never Give In” peaked at No. 4 on the Americana Airplay Charts and stayed steady in the Top 10 for fifteen consecutive weeks.

“Never give in” is a life motto for the Nashville native who skyrocketed into the national spotlight recently after years of touring. In 2012, Hoge was officially introduced to his first dose of mainstream country as the support act for Dierks Bentley’s arena headlining tour. Making his own mark on country music, Hoge is now credited with hit songs including “Better Off Now,” performed by Lady Antebellum and the No. 1 Platinum-selling smash, “Even If It Breaks Your Heart” recorded by the Eli Young Band. “Even If It Breaks Your Heart” garnered an enormous amount of buzz at Country radio, earning Hoge nominations for the 2013 Grammy Country Song of the Year, 2013 ACM Song of the Year and 2012 CMA Song of the Year.
