GIE+EXPO Announces Supporting Acts to Concert Lineup

GIE+EXPO is sure to be a rockin’ good time! Opening acts with universal appeal have been announced for the GIE+EXPO concert lineup for Thursday and Friday nights at 4th Street Live! — party central for GIE+EXPO.

Candy Coburn is back at GIE+EXPO 2010 opening for Neal McCoy Thursday night at 8:00 p.m. With a sound described as “southern soul rockin’ country,” this country singer will appeal to everyone. Her latest album, “Lucky” just hit stores in September so she is sure to offer up an energetic performance.

The country duo Aly’an will stir up the crowd with their high-energy performance Friday at 8:00 p.m. With sweet harmonies and upbeat melodies along with their stage antics, Aly’an will leave the crowd wanting more. The duo will open for Heidi Newfield.

“The GIE+EXPO concert series always attracts a crowd, and we are excited to add these new acts to the lineup,” said Warren Sellers, GIE+EXPO show director. “Exhibitors and attendees alike can get in on the fun at these free events.”

GIE+EXPO is set for Thursday, October 28 through Saturday, October 30 at the Kentucky Exposition Center in Louisville. The international tradeshow is sponsored by the Outdoor Power Equipment Institute Inc. (OPEI); Professional Landcare Network (PLANET) and the Professional Grounds Management Society (PGMS). This year, for the first time, Hardscape North America will be co-located on the show floor on the same dates.
