2020 Big Sky Music Festival Lineup
Dwight Yoakam
Dwight Yoakam has been announced as the headlining act for the 2020 Big Sky Music Festival. It’s going to be such an honour to see this country legend play. Mr. Yoakam has sold more than 25 million albums worldwide, and he is a 21-time nominated, multiple GRAMMY Award winner.
He has 12 gold albums and 9 platinum or multi-platinum albums, with five of those albums topping Billboard’s Country Albums chart and another 14 landing in the Top 10. Nearly 40 of Yoakam’s singles, including “Honky Tonk Man”, “Ain’t That Lonely Yet” and, “Fast As You”, have charted on Billboard, with 14 peaking in the Top 10.
LeAnn Rimes
This. is. HUGE! LeAnn Rimes has been a staple in the country music industry since 1996 at 13 years old when she released her debut single “Blue”. This country icon will be joining us this year at the 2020 Big Sky Music Festival, and we couldn’t be more excited!
This Summer, we are going to be amongst royalty! LeAnn has won many awards, including two Grammys, three ACMs, a CMA, 12 Billboard Music Awards, and one American Music award. When we say this is going to be a great experience, we mean it.
Ronnie Milsap
Another amazing artist to be playing at the second annual Big Sky Music Festival. Born blind, Ronnie Milsap discovered music at the North Carolina State School for the Blind – deviating from the school’s classical curriculum to explore the nascent realms of race music, rock & roll and jazz.
Forty #1s including “I Wouldn’t Have Missed It For The World” and “(There’s) No Gettin’ Over Me”. Five decades of charted singles. Six Grammys. CMA Entertainer of the Year and four Album of the Year Awards. The first country video played on MTV (the ironic “She Loves My Car”). He’s the same guy today, but all these years later, he’s still a man who lives to play. We can’t wait to see him perform!
Joe Diffie
Joe Diffie is an icon in country music. Whether singing about untarnished love in the enduring hit “John Deere Green,” the perennial appeal of “Pickup Man” or the heartbreak of dreams unrealized in “Ships That Don’t Come In,” Joe Diffie’s songs have continually painted a portrait of real life with all its joy and angst. “I’ve always loved well-written songs,” says the Grammy winner, who is just as skilled at writing hits as he is singing them. By 1990, Diffie had signed with Epic Records and released his debut album. His very first single, “Home,” hit No. 1. He continued to dominate the charts throughout the 90s with such hits as “Prop Me Up Beside the Jukebox (If I Die),” and, “Bigger than the Beatles”. It’s going to be so exciting to see Joe perform live!
Sons of Daughters
Kelly Prescott

In country music, the Front Porch has long been a place of reflection. A place where you can look at the life you have inside that front door. A place where time almost seems to stand still, where you can get away. It’s also a place where you can go to observe the world as it passes by you. To think about your place out there beyond the driveway.
