LAFAYETTE, Ind. — The group America will be the first national group on tour to perform at Loeb Stadium.
Lafayette Mayor Tony Roswarski announced Wednesday that Grammy Award-winning band America will perform at Loeb Stadium on June 30.
“It was a dream of ours, as you know Loeb Stadium was built to be a multi-purpose facility and that’s really what works,” Roswarski said.
America is perhaps best known for big hits like “A Horse with No Name” and “Ventura Highway.” The group was nominated for two Grammys in 1973, Best New Artist and Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals, winning Best New Artist.
