On September 7th, 2012, Swiftwater Cellarsshall host a "Concert Benefit Spectacular", featuring multi-platinum Nashville recording artist, Lonestar. The concert shall be the winery’s final concert of its 2012 Summer Concert Series, as well as the second to be staged last minute as a community benefit for the victims of the recent Taylor Bridge Fire in Central Washington. Lonestar shall feature the return of original lead vocalist and songwriter Richie McDonald. The return of McDonald was followed quickly by the band's release of the single "Countdown", and announcement of a 20th Anniversary Album to be released in late fall of 2012. Regarding the forthcoming album, in a statement on the band's website, McDonald states "It sounds like Lonestar more than it ever has, since we had a lot of creative control on it. We are better together than we ever were apart. I feel like I am back with my brothers. This record was a lot of fun to make and a true labor of love. We feel that it’s the best album that we have ever made." On Billboard.com: "Lonestar's multi-platinum history and huge fanbase affords the band the luxury to choose the right partners for its new record."
To date, Lonestar have has produced 10 number 1 singles, 9 of which charted in one year (1995). In 1999, the song"Amazed", reached number 1 on both the Billboard Hot 100 as well as country charts, making it the first "crossover" hit to do so in over a decade. There are 3 certified gold albums and 3 certified platinum albums to the band’s credit, with over 6,500 million records sold worldwide.
The Taylor Bridge Firethat began on August 14th just East of Cle Elum, WA, destroyed approx 50 homes and 25,000 acres throughout Kittitas and Yakima Counties. On August 15th, during the afternoon following the start of the fire, a “State of Emergency” was declared by Washington State Governor Christine Gregiore.
A concert originally planned for August 17th, to feature Trace Adkins, was cancelled, but with the fire starting only 3 days from the concert, the owners of the Winery were already in the midst of contemplating whether a) the concert should be cancelled or b) how the concert could be utilized in a benefit capacity. Prior to receiving notice of cancellation from Adkins management, they did not imagine it would be both.
Swiftwater Cellars announced on August 16th that a separate concert and benefit would be held on August 17th, as a community benefit, and in lieu of cancellation of the original concert to be held on August 17th. The event, titled "Battle at the Bridge", would feature a lineup of local Artists, including Seattle disco cover band Hit Explosion, former Warner Brothers recording artist Alexis Ebert (Albany, OR) and others. Despite what seemed overwhelming odds, the independently produced community concert, produced and marketed over the course of 1 day, went on to raise over $40,000 in donations, with a reported attendance of approximate 1000 persons.
What the venue considers their finale concert of the season, is produced with the intent to further "celebrate the strength of the upper Kittitas county community", to offer relief to those affected and to raise enough in donations to further offset the now $8,000,000 in damages estimated to have been caused by the Taylor Bridge Fire.
The upcoming benefit concert on September 7th is All-Ages. Doors open at 5:30pm, with opening act Countrified. Ticket prices start at $35 for reserved seating, and are available online at www.ticketmaster.com or by calling 1-800-325-SEAT. Proceeds from all on-site donations shall benefit the Victims of the Taylor Bridge Fire. For more information email concerts@swiftwatercellars.com

TRACE ADKINS CONCERT CANCELLED IN CLE ELUM, WA DUE TO
DEVASTATING WILDFIRES
A statement from Trace Adkins:
With heartfelt concern for the residents of Cle Elum, WA
who are currently facing devastating wildfires, I can not in good conscience
stage a concert this Friday while the community is under such strain.
We have been following the developments closely and while
the Swiftwater Cellars Amphitheater is not directly in the fire’s path, Gov.
Gregoire has declared a state of emergency and reports indicate that the fire,
which has claimed 22,000 acres, will require up to seven more days before it is
comfortably contained.
I know all too well what residents are feeling as they
evacuate their homes. I thank God that reports indicate no loss of life. As the
hundreds of firefighters, National Guardsmen and community leaders work
overtime to keep everyone safe, I hope that those who have the means will also
offer their help.
***UPDATE 7PM 8/15/2012****
NOTICE: DUE TO DECLARED STATE OF EMERGENCY FOR YAKIMA & KITTITAS COUNTIES, THIS PERFORMANCE HAS BEEN POSTPONED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE. REFUNDS AVAILABLE AT TICKETMASTER OR AUTHORIZED POINT OF SALE.

night".

Rick Derringerwith special guests Howard "Guitar" Luedtke and Blue Maxand Lisa Mann
Rick Derringer has been in the fabric of rock & roll since 1965, and remains one of the most enduring players from Rock's golden era. Derringer's first run was with the McCoys in his early teens, generating the hit anthem "Hang On Sloopy". Later his collaboration with Johnny Winter (and later Edgar) provided Rick with a level of credibility that most guitar players can only dream of, even more so after the roll-out of the Double LP Roadwork in 1972 featuring the classic hit Rock n Roll Hoochie Koo. Throughout the 70s and 80s, Derringer performed on studio albums with the likes of Alice Cooper, Steely Dan, Todd Rundgren, Barbra Streisand, KISS, and Richie Havens, before being chosen in the 90s to helm all of the World Wrestling Federation LPs. Derringer has recorded over 30 albums in his decades-long career and is known for a fantastic live show.
