“Our team finds such joy in bringing artists like Carly Pearce to our community," Kootenai County Fairgrounds general manager Alexcia Jordan said. "For years people have asked us to bring a female country artist. We are thrilled to finally make that happen for our fair fans. Kicking off our Party in the Dirt concert series with someone as talented as Carly Pearce is going to set the stage for an exceptional fair.”
