Syracuse,
NY – August 2022 / Newsmaker Alert: A “Sunset Carousel” is the
subject of his newest summer single, and later this month, country music
singer-songwriter David Nail will return to a summer setting that features
a carousel, along with many other exciting Midway sights. David Nail, who
played for fans at Chevy Court in 2011, will perform on Thursday, August
25 at 2 p.m. at Chevy
Park.
David Nail first climbed
the country charts in the early 2000s. Fairgoers might recognize hits including
“Let it Rain,” “Whatever She’s Got,” and “Good at Tonight.”
In 2019, the Grammy-nominated
multi-platinum artist released a solo, independent EP “Oh, Mother.” This
was followed by “Bootheel 2020” and “Bootheel 2021,” projects dedicated
to his hometown, Kennett, Missouri, located in the “bootheel” of the state.

“While we’re excited we
get to highlight the talents of new country artists including ERNEST and
Alex Miller, we know fairgoers appreciate it when country veterans like
David Nail take the stage - especially knowing how much they enjoyed his
2011 performance,” said interim Fair Director Sean
Hennessey. “David Nail is well-respected in the songwriting world,
and he’s a fixture on country radio stations across the country. It’s great
to have him back here to play in Central New York.”
