Get ready for a night of heart-pounding country melodies and unapologetic rock ‘n’ roll grit as Riley Green with Ella Langley take center stage at the Kansas State Fair at 7:30 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 14.

Riley Green, the compelling voice behind country hits that resonate with authenticity, will grace the Kansas State Fair with his undeniable talent. Since the release of his self-titled EP in 2018, Green has become a beacon in the country music scene, commanding fans to raise a drink, shed a tear, and celebrate their roots. His chart-topping singles, including the No. 1 Platinum hit “There Was This Girl,” the double-platinum-certified “I Wish Grandpas Never Died,” and the collaborative success “Half of Me” with Thomas Rhett, showcase Green’s no-gimmick, relatable writing and classic feel.

As a former athlete, avid sports fan, and outdoorsman, Green brings a unique perspective to his music, earning him accolades such as the Academy of Country Music’s 2020 New Male Artist of the Year. With an average of 65,000 fans each night, Green has been captivating audiences as direct support for Morgan Wallen and Luke Combs, headlining major festivals like Rock The South, and selling out his own shows. His latest album, “Ain’t My Last Rodeo,” produced by Dann Huff, promises the signature Riley Green experience, deeply rooted in the rural, small-town lifestyle that inspires him.

Opening for Green is Alabama native Ella Langley, a rising star in country music known for her show-stopping vocals and razor-sharp storytelling. With her unfiltered true stories infused with unapologetic rock ‘n’ roll grit and pop appeal, Langley has quickly become an artist to watch. Her debut EP, “Excuse The Mess,” garnered attention, and now she is gearing up for a remarkable journey alongside Riley Green, HARDY, and Morgan Wallen in 2024.
