SALAMANCA — The air is going to be filled with the sounds of legendary music this August as Seneca Allegany Resort & Casino brings a pair of remarkable acts to the outdoor concert stage for a spectacular weekend of entertainment.
Lonestar and Montgomery Gentry, featuring Eddie Montgomery, will perform Friday, Aug. 29, and Steve Miller Band will take the stage Saturday, Aug. 30. Tickets go on sale at 10 a.m. Friday.
Lonestar has charted more than 20 songs on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart, including a remarkable nine No. 1 hits. The band’s amazing career catalog includes favorites “No News,” “Come Cryin’ to Me,” “Amazed,” “Smile,” “My Front Porch Looking In” and “I’m Already There,” among others. “Amazed” also charted at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, at the time becoming the first country song to achieve that feat in almost 20 years.
With the exception of lead singer Drew Womack, who joined in 2021, the current lineup of Lonestar remains unchanged from its most successful era. Guitarist Michael Britt, keyboardist Dean Sams and drummer Keech Rainwater round out the original band members, and Britt says they’ve never been more solid.
“It’s kind of crazy that we’ve lived so long with each other,” he told Taste of Country in 2024. “And now we’re just to the point where we can kind of finish each other’s sentences … so there’s a mutual respect that we’ve learned. You know, we’ve gone through so much stuff; there have been so many chances for us to give up, and we never did.”
Lonestar will be joined at Seneca Allegany by Montgomery Gentry, featuring Eddie Montgomery. Montgomery Gentry was a powerhouse duo that delivered five No. 1 country hits and more than 20 charted singles, including “If You Ever Stop Loving Me,” “Something to Be Proud Of,” “Lucky Man,” “Hell Yeah,” and many others. After Troy Gentry died in a helicopter crash in 2017, Montgomery has kept the duo’s legacy alive, touring and sharing Montgomery Gentry’s music and spirit with fans everywhere.
“There’s not a night that don’t go by that we don’t talk about T-Roy,” Montgomery said during a 2024 interview from Nashville. “I’m always used to lookin’ to my left there because it’s been me and him and John Boy, or John Michael as everybody knows him as, that started a band pretty much outta high school.”
Tickets for Friday’s concert start at $20.

Performing Saturday, Steve Miller Band has defined the classic rock sound for more than half a century.

The band’s albums have sold tens of millions of copies around the globe, and its songs are staples on the classic rock airwaves to this day. Steve Miller Band’s “Greatest Hits 1974–78” is among the best-selling albums of all time. Miller was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2016.
The Steve Miller Band played to nearly a million fans on successful tours in 2024 including with Journey and Def Leppard as well as a return to the top of the charts for “Abracadabra” via its prominent feature in Eminem’s hit single “Houdini.”Tickets for Saturday’s show start at $55.
