Ford Amphitheater is entering one of its busiest stretches of the year, with concerts booked across multiple genres through the end of September.

The run kicks off with The Black Crowes and Whiskey Myers sharing a bill, with Southall also appearing as a special guest. The show gets underway at 6:30 p.m., with doors opening an hour earlier.

Sublime, with Common Kings and Codefendants in support, performs Aug. 6, and Lindsey Stirling follows two nights later on Aug. 8. Sublime's set begins at 6:30 p.m., while Stirling takes the stage at 8 p.m. Stirling's Duality Untamed Tour also features PVRIS and ARKAI, with tickets starting at $40.

The third weekend of August is especially dense with activity, opening Thursday, Aug. 13 with Sammy Hagar and Rick Springfield. That show starts at 7 p.m., with doors welcoming fans at 6 p.m. Alison Krauss and Union Station, featuring Jerry Douglas, perform the following evening. Lauren Daigle rounds out that weekend on Saturday with a 7:30 p.m. performance.

Toward the end of the month, Ty Myers, Brent Cobb, and Benny G are booked for Aug. 29, with Brantley Gilbert taking the stage the first Saturday of September.

Lynyrd Skynyrd, joined by 38 Special, is set to bring the summer schedule to a close on Sept. 19, with doors opening at 6:30 p.m. Tickets and venue information for all dates are available through the amphitheater's website.
