The boy from the bush is getting ready for a big show full of his top hits.
Country music legend Lee Kernaghan spoke to ‘The Mail’ and said he was excited to be performing his 25th anniversary show at the York on Lilydale on Saturday 25 February.
“I think the highlight of 2017 will be playing at the York on Lilydale- I cannot think of a better venue,” Kernaghan said.
Although he has visited the Yarra Ranges before, this will be Kernaghan’s first time performing in Lilydale.
He described the show as a “party atmosphere” with all of his top hits.
“It’s a spectacular show,” Kernaghan said.
“I’ll be turning it on and turning it up for everyone.”
Celebrating the quarter of a century career milestone, he preferred to call his fans ‘mates’, as they have inspired his music.
“ … because they feel like family,” Kernaghan said.
He said some of his most memorable shows would include the Gympie Muster when he set one of his guitars on fire and his first ever show at the Deniliquin Ute Muster.
Kernaghan opened the 25th anniversary tour in Tamworth on Thursday 26 January.
He will be joined by Australian country-rock band The Wolfe Brothers and Australian country music artist Christie Lamb.
