It was a beautiful night for a post-game concert and if you are a country music fan it was even better. Multi-platinum national recording artist
Chris Young took the stage to entertain thousands of fans.
His music was a combination of country music with some rock-n-roll overtones that gave a music fan a dose of feel-good music. The 75-minute set included many of his top hits with some emotional moments like honoring his friend Adam who had passed.
It's been eighteen years since winning the reality show Nashville star and he has charted 20+ songs on the US Country Charts and 5 which have reached #1 over the years. It was great to hear some of his classics like "Gettin' You Home" & "Hangin' On" & also his newer hits like "Young Love & Saturday Nights."
He mentioned most of his band had been with him for the long-haul, which included his bandmate and college buddy Seth Costner. Seth sang his rendition of Prince's "Kiss" during the set. It was a fun experience tying Country music to fans of the Minnesota music icon.
I personally like the way Chris Young used the video boards with Kane Brown to sing their big hit "Famous Friends." It was unique and worked really well with the Target Field atmosphere and it seem the fans really enjoyed it as well. It was another successful post-game concert for the Minnesota Twins staff& fans. It was the second consecutive year (4th show overall) and I hope they keep the new tradition going.
