Country music star Phil Vassar is set to perform at the Raue Center for the Arts in downtown Crystal Lake on November 16 as part of his Hits & Heroes Tour.
With an impressive catalog boasting 10 Number 1 singles and 26 Top 40 hits, Vassar is known for popular songs like “Carlene,” “Just Another Day in Paradise,” “Six-Pack Summer,” and “When I Love You.” His accolades include two ASCAP Songwriter of the Year awards and recognition as ACM’s Top New Male Vocalist, along with a track record of sold-out performances across the nation.
Vassar’s songwriting career took off in the mid-1990s when he secured a publishing contract, crafting hits for artists such as Collin Raye (“Little Red Rodeo”), Alan Jackson (“Right on the Money”), Tim McGraw (“For a Little While”), Jo Dee Messina (“Bye Bye, Alright”), and Blackhawk (“Postmarked Birmingham”). He signed a record deal with Arista Records in 1998 and was honored as ASCAP’s Country Songwriter of the Year in 1999.
