  Dierks Bentley will perform at Harrah's Grand Event Center In Cherokee on Sept. 21.

   Country Music superstar Dierks Bentley will be performing at Harrah’s Grand Events Center in Cherokee, Friday Sept. 21, at 9 p.m. 

  Known as one of the most versatile performers in the industry, Bentley performed four shows in four nights in New York City that illustrate his range in music. First, Bentley, the multi-platinum arena headliner, played his hits at the Bowery Ballroom. The following night, Bentley, the bluegrass student and devotee, performed with the Del McCoury Band, and the next night Bentley appeared at a songwriter’s night with fellow Music Row tunesmiths followed by a show with Chris Thile’s experimental Punch Brothers. Probably no other artist on country radio in the past ten years could manage this kind of range and versatility.

   Bentley is known for his distinctive voice and acoustic/electric hybrid sound that propelled him to membership in the Grand Ole Opry and, in 2011, a performance for the President at the White House.

  Bentley scored a series of No# 1 with memorable tunes such as “What was I Thinking”, “Come a Little Closer”, “Sideways”, “Feel That fire”, “Every mile a memory” and others.

  His new album, “Up on The Ridge” has been nominated for a Grammy.

  Tickets are on sale now and can be purchased by calling 1-800-745-3000. Harrah’s Grand Event Center is located at 777 Casino Drive, Cherokee, N.C.
