Country Music Superstar Blake Shelton to Headline Kinnick Event

IOWA CITY, Iowa History will be made on August 27, 2016, when Kinnick Stadium will host a concert for the first time. The Back Porch Revival at Kinnick Stadium concert will feature Blake Shelton as the headliner and a line-up of country music all-stars to benefit the Native Fund, a new non-profit organization.

An announcement was made during the University of Iowa football game Saturday by Iowa Hawkeye and former Indianapolis Colt, Dallas Clark, who also plays a key role in the event.

“I’ve had this idea for a long time and coincidently this year, I was making connections with people who could make it happen and, as the pieces started coming together I knew the time was right,” said Clark.
