Country star Darius Rucker will headline Naples’ sixth-annual Live Fest this December.
Rucker performs Saturday, Dec. 13, on the driving range of Tiburon Golf Club at The Ritz Carlton Golf Resort, organizers announced this week. The outdoor show is part of the Grant Thornton Invitational, a mixed-team golf event featuring PGA and LPGA pros.
Rucker returns to Live Fest for the first time since playing the inaugural event in 2019 with co-headliners Lady A (formerly Lady Antebellum). The Grammy Award winner has scored four No. 1 albums in the Billboard country chart, and his song “Wagon Wheel” is one one the top 5 best-selling country songs of all time, according to a Live Fest news release.
He’ll share the stage with Southwest Florida band Rock Republic and “American Idol” semifinalist Casey Bishop. Two more acts will be announced later this summer.
