Due to a personal family emergency, the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band has to postpone their schedule performance for June 1st to a later date in the near future. Mohegan Sun apologizes for the inconvenience and has replaced the performance with Brooks and Dunn’s own Kix Brooks.
Born and raised in Shreveport, Louisiana, Kix Brooks was influenced by a variety of regional musical styles ranging from Cajun, Blues, Jazz and Country. Brooks began performing at the age of 12 and continued performing in clubs and at other venues throughout high school. Eventually, he landed in Nashville and joined Tree Publishing Company as a songwriter. Shortly thereafter, artists like the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, John Conlee and Highway 101 all scored #1’s with Brooks’ songs. In 1990, Brooks teamed with Ronnie Dunn to form Brooks & Dunn, the highest selling duo in the history of Country music.
Wolf Den performances are free and open to the public. Must be 21 years or older to attend.
