Shane Wyatt To Perform At The New Toby Keith’s I Love This Bar & Grill In St. Louis Park On June 4

SHANE WYATT PERFORMS AT THE NEW
TOBY KEITH’S I LOVE THIS BAR & GRILL
IN THE SHOPPES AT WEST END IN
ST. LOUIS PARK ON FRIDAY, JUNE 4

Rising country singer-songwriter Shane Wyatt has the honor of being one of the first bands to grace the stage at the new Toby Keith’s I Love This Bar & Grill, opening this week in the popular Shoppes at West End in St. Louis Park. The Minnesota-based artist and his band will perform a free 21+ show this Friday, June 4 at 9: 30 p.m.

Aside from being singers and songwriters, Wyatt shares something else with country music superstar Toby Keith. They both hail from Oklahoma.

Minneapolis’ own music critic Chris Riemenschneider of the Star Tribune said, “His polished but brawny brand of country fits in among currently hot Music Row studs such as Brad Paisley, Dierks Bentley and Tim McGraw.”

Famed Nashville historian Robert K. Oermann said Wyatt’s “The Big Bad Dog” “marks him as the most commercial and creative songwriter of the bunch.”

While tearing up the country charts with songs from his debut album The Last Cowboy – including “The Big Bad Dog,” “Whole Lotta Love” and “She Could Do Better” - Wyatt has shared the stage with his hero Randy Travis, The Bellamy Brothers, Joe Nichols and Eric Church.

This summer, Wyatt will open for Phil Vassar at The Surf Ballroom on June 11 in Clear Lake, Iowa; will make a return appearance at FireFest on July 31 in Cold Spring, Minn., with Bombshell, Little Big Town and Emerson Drive; and will keep the party going at WeFest on August 5 in Detroit Lakes, Minn., following Keith Urban’s headlining performance.
