"We're delighted to be back at The Kentucky State Fair as part of The Texas Roadhouse Concert Series. We played that venue a couple of years ago, and had a blast," shares Exile! “All the members of Exile have been coming to The State Fair for decades - it's one of the best fairs in the country, and we're honored to be a part of it."

“We’re excited to welcome everyone to the Kentucky State Fair and Texas Roadhouse Concert series this August. We’ve got a great lineup with old friends like Exile and the Oak Ridge Boys and up-and-coming future country artists like Jameson Rodgers and White Reaper. Additionally, we have seven artists that are from Kentucky, which shows the incredible talent we have here in the Commonwealth. This year’s concert series will offer something for everyone and be the perfect celebration after a year without many of our traditional concerts and events,” said David S. Beck, President and CEO of Kentucky Venues.

The camaraderie and all parts of the glue that has held the group Exile together is very healthy, and their longevity will be ongoing as the Pop/Country crossover hit-making band continues to tour, performing their greatest hits, fan-favorite on-the-road songs from over the years, and plan to announce new tour dates ongoing in 2021.

About The Kentucky State Fair:
Kentucky State Fair history encompasses Kentucky’s growth and change in communication, transportation, technology and popular culture. Fair history reflects the challenges we have faced over the past century: to fight war and disease, to shift from rural toward increasingly more urban, to advance human rights and to grow more prosperous. The Fair has become the training ground, the testing site, and the public showcase for the Commonwealth’s progress. To borrow a promotional phrase used throughout the early decades of Fair history, the Fair is Kentucky Proud.

About Exile:
Exile formed in 1963 looking to play small clubs in Richmond, Kentucky, but managed to top both the pop and country charts during their over 58 year-long career. Their most successful hit, “Kiss You All Over” spent four weeks at the top of Billboard’s pop chart in 1978. In the early 1980’s Exile started to focus on country music. During their run on the country charts Exile has successfully had ten No. 1 singles including “I Don’t Want To Be A Memory” and “Give Me One More Chance.” The hit song "Kiss You All Over" was used in the 1996 Adam Sandler movie “Happy Gilmore” and in the 2006 film “Employee of the Month.” They have toured with acts including Aerosmith, Fleetwood Mac, The Oak Ridge Boys, Kenny Rogers and The Judds. The 5 original Exile members re-formed in 2008 and continue to tour today. Current members of the band include J.P. Pennington, Les Taylor, Sonny LeMaire, Marlon Hargis and Steve Goetzman. 2021 celebrates 58 years for the band and the 43rd anniversary of the hit song “Kiss You All Over.”
