It fuses the genres of pop, reggae, hip hop, and rock, and has a natural summery, sunshine feel to every track. Their neo-soul undertone provides a little something extra to their music and creates an infectious, addicting rhythm that you'll be glad to have stuck in your head." - Jukely Live Music Blog Rockstar RodeoCovering artists like Florida Georgia Line, Carrie Underwood, Miranda Lambert , Jason Aldean, AC/DC, John Mellencamp and many more, Rockstar Rodeo brings rock ‘n’ country to life in a dancing, singing, having-the-time-of-your-life event, with an energetic delivery you’ve never seen before.

We are asking that, wherever possible, you please police yourselves when it comes to parking, be courteous to your fellow boaters, and watch out for anchor lines. The concert will be in a temporary Slow No Wake area. Please be courteous when arriving and avoid sending rollers into the no wake zone. There will be signs and staff on hand to help point you in the right direction. Be careful and take care of each other. Let's have a wonderful night! See you all soon!
