Known for his unapologetic, freedom-fueled anthems, Andy Ross will take the stage on Saturday afternoon from 1:45 to 2:45 PM, delivering a powerful, adrenaline-pumping set that celebrates the American spirit, hard work, and unwavering patriotism. His music, infused with themes of liberty, grit, and the American dream, perfectly complements the intensity and passion of NHRA drag racing.

The energy, the fans, the roar of the engines – it's everything I love about this country. I can't wait to bring the music and the spirit of American Rebel Light to this incredible event!

A Legacy of Speed: The History of Bristol Dragway Since its opening in 1965, Bristol Dragway has been a pillar of American motorsports, earning its legendary nickname, Thunder Valley, due to the way nitro-powered engines echo between the surrounding hills. Originally built for $1 million, the track quickly became a premier destination for drag racing, hosting the NHRA Spring Nationals in its early years. Over time, it evolved into a world-class facility, undergoing a $18 million renovation in 1996 that expanded seating, improved pit areas, and raised the track level by 15 feet. Bristol Dragway has seen historic moments, including the Winston Showdown in 2000, where Funny Cars and Top Fuelers competed head-to-head in a non-points exhibition. The Thunder Valley Nationals were officially born in 2001, cementing Bristol's place as a must-visit venue for NHRA fans. Experience American Rebel Light at Thunder Valley Fans can enjoy American Rebel Light at all concession locations selling beer at Thunder Valley, making it easy to grab a cold one while taking in the thrill of NHRA racing.

Michigan native Mike Posner headlines Ann Arbor's Sonic Lunch season opener
Crowds of people filled Ann Arbor's Liberty Plaza on Thursday for the return of Sonic Lunch. The Bank of Ann Arbor sponsors the free concert series, which is now in its 18th season. Despite the rainy conditions, fans drove over to see headliner Mike Posner. "We drove like two and a half hours," said fan Micheal Williams. "We drove an hour at like 9 a.m.," said fan Morgan Cherry. "(I'm) probably one of Mike Posner's biggest fans." The series offers free concerts every Thursday from June through August, and this year's lineup is one of its biggest yet. "We have Phillip Phillips. We have The Accidentals, May Erlewine, Laith Al-Saadi," said organizer Matthew Altruda. A Detroit native, Posner said he grew up attending Michigan football games with his father, who attended the University of Michigan. He said it always feels good to come home for a show. "It's always good to play in Michigan in general and in Ann Arbor especially, love it here," said Posner. "I've been playing here for a long time." DJ and reality TV star Brody Jenner is currently on tour with Posner. "Mike's going on a big festival tour and we're playing some big, big shows, and he needed a DJ," said Jenner. "Our agent asked if I wanted to do it, and I was like, 'Yes, absolutely.' I've always been a fan of Mike, and he's one of my favorite artists, so it's a dream come true." Visit the Sonic Lunch website for more information and this summer's lineup.
