The Wolf Den at Mohegan Sun will continue to thrill this spring, beginning with Pop sensation Jordin Sparks on Saturday, May 1st, followed by Country star Dilbert McClinton on Saturday, May 8th. Kara DioGuardi – An Evening of Songs & Stories is live in the Den on Friday, May 14th and John Michael Montgomery will liven up the Wolf Den stage on Saturday, May 15th. Easton Corbin will take over the stage on Sunday, May 23rd.  Finally, America’s 40th Anniversary Tour arrives in the Wolf Den on Saturday, May 29th.  Friday and Saturday Wolf Den shows begin at 8:00pm and Sunday shows are at 7:00pm unless otherwise noted.   Admission is free, but all patrons must be 21 or over.
Jordin Sparks rose to fame as the winner of the sixth season of American Idol. With the 2009 release of her sophomore project Battlefield, Sparks showcases a new look and a confident maturity.  The second single off the album, “S.O.S. (Let The Music Play)” is Sparks’ first single to hit #1, climbing to the top of the Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart.
Three-time Grammy Award-winning artist Delbert McClinton released his latest album Acquired Taste in 2009, his first new recording in over four years. Over the course of his career, he has charted singles on various Billboard charts including Hot 100, Mainstream Rock Tracks and Hot Country Songs. His highest peaking single was “Tell Me About It,” a 1992 duet with Tanya Tucker, which reached #4 on the U.S. Country charts.
Kara DioGuardi is a music mogul as she is a talented singer/songwriter and producer to list a few of her credentials. She has penned hits for numerous singers such as Celine Dion, Pink and Kelly Clarkson. She also serves as a judge on Fox’s American Idol.
John Michael Montgomery has turned an uncanny ability to relate to fans into one of Country music’s most storied careers. Since the days when “Life’s A Dance” turned him from an unknown artist into a national star, John Michael’s rich baritone has carried the most important of assets: believability.
Easton Corbin is unapologetically Country. His songs, while rooted in the present, call to mind simpler times when the back porch was where folks gathered to network. Steel guitars and fiddles are as much a part of his sound as his baritone drawl. The single, “A Little More Country Than That,” paints a picture of rural life that speaks to Easton’s small town sensibilities.
America hit it big in the 1970s with a string of commercially successful albums.  The Folk/Rock band’s biggest hits include, “A Horse with No Name,” “Sister Golden Hair” and “Ventura Highway.”
