Arkansas native Joe Nichols announced as first headliner of ArkanFest coming this June

Something big is coming to Hickory Park this summer. The Baxter Summer Concert Series is evolving into ArkanFest, a one-weekend music festival set for June 12 – 14, promising to bring bigger acts to the Twin Lakes Area.

On Friday, ArkanFest organizers revealed their first headliner: Joe Nichols, a multi-platinum country artist and Arkansas native known for blending traditional roots with a modern flair. With six No. 1 singles and hits like “Tequila Makes Her Clothes Fall Off,” “Yeah,” and “Brokenheartsville,” Nichols has cemented himself as a staple of contemporary country music and has earned him multiple ACM, CMA, and Grammy nominations throughout his career.

Nichols is set to perform June 13.
