In addition to the thrills on the track, race fans will experience an “Eight Second Ride,” coupled with a dose of “Yee-Haw,” when country superstar Jake Owen takes to the stage prior to the Kansas 400.
“Pre-race concerts have been very popular amongst our fans, particularly with the addition of our Track Pass benefit, allowing season ticket holders an up close look at these incredible performers,” said Kansas Speedway President Patrick Warren. “We feel that Jake’s entertaining show will be appreciated by our fans as we embark upon the first of two NASCAR Sprint Cup headlining weekends this year.”
Owen, a Florida native, is expected to perform hits from his first album, “Startin’ With Me,” and his sophomore effort, “Easy Does It.” The RCA Nashville recording artist is a CMA-ACM-Grammy nominated entertainer known for his southern style and charm, he cites Waylon Jennings, Hank Williams Jr. and Conway Twitty as those who inspire his music.
