Rhett’s six albums have landed him on the Billboard Hot Country and Country Airplay Charts 21 times. Seventeen of those singles have reached No. 1 on the latter. Those singles include “Look What God Gave Her,” “Beer Can’t Fix,” and “Country Again.”

2023 was a busy year for Rhett. The country superstar hit 40 cities in 27 states on his U.S. Home Team Tour 23. After kicking off 2024 on New Year’s Eve Live: Nashville’s Big Bash, Rhett is showing no signs of slowing down.
’90s Dance Party
Several ’90s chart-toppers are also slated to perform, including Vanilla Ice, Tone Loc, and Sugarhill Gang. Fans can dance along to throwback hits such as “Wild Thing” and “Rappers Delight.”
Despite famously “retiring” the “Ice Ice Baby” video by smashing its master tape with a baseball bat during an MTV special, rapper Vanilla Ice is set to perform his 1990 debut hit for the Pendleton audience.
Set against the backdrop of downtown Pendleton, Joel Gibson Jr, Precious Byrd, and DJ Sovern-T will take the stage at the event’s annual kick-off party on July 12.
