Why: Well, when you think of country music who doesn’t think of Southeastern Michigan, right, that is what they are famous for correct… that was a joke. But in all seriousness, Faster Horses is not just another music festival, those who attend are solely there for the music and a good time as artists and fans happily indulge in a three-day country music bash that throws aside old ideas about musical genres. The Faster Horse Festival is quickly becoming one of the biggest of its kind in the United States as it heads into its 10th year next to the Michigan International Speedway in an area behind the back- stretch of the track and set among the rolling Irish Hills of Brooklyn, MI. Faster Horses expects to draw 40,000-plus fans to kick off a weekend of camping, music, and fun. This year’s headliners for Friday, Saturday, and Sunday are Country Music Superstars Luke Bryan, Zac Brown Band, and the iconic Shania Twain. Joining them on stage are Dustin Lynch, Dwight Yoakam, Billy Currington, Blanco Brown, Tenille Townes, Megan Moroney, Mackenzie Carpenter, Madeline Edwards, and Mackenzie Porter plus 20 other amazing up-and-coming country music artists to complete the lineup for this fantastic festival. So, if you’re looking to enjoy some country music and be immersed in the culture of a true country town, get the Faster Horses festival on your bucket list and giddy up to Brooklyn, Michigan this summer.
