Lineup set for Barefoot Fest Kick Off Concert

The full lineup for the first day of this year's festival has been released.

And we purposely say "the first day", because the doors on Thursday the 20th will open 3 hours earlier this year. In the past, the Kick Off Concert was solely a night performance - this year's it's starting in the afternoon.

Old Dominion will close the show that first night, with Oliver Anthony taking the stage before the band.

Also on the Kick Off Concert main stage will be well-known party performer Colt Ford, plus Alana Springsteen.

New Jersey kind-of-native John Eddie, will also take the stage. (While not born here, Eddie spent a lot of his youth and later years growing up, living, and performing in the Garden State.)

The final spot on the Thursday schedule will be handled by the US Air Force Heritage of America Band.

Barefoot Country Music Fest Lineup

While the first night's schedule is set for Barefoot, the rest of the festival's slate has not been revealed.

We do know the lineup will include headliners Luke Bryan, Kane Brown, and Keith Urban.

Also announced so far: Jake Owen,  Bailey Zimmerman, Rodney Atkins, Nate Smith and more.
