About Lee Brice Lee Brice is a craftsman, the kind whose boundless desire to hone his skills and relentless pursuit of perfection are matched only by his humility about the entire process. His new album, I Don't Dance, is a showcase for his painstaking approach to writing and recording, with his distinctive fingerprints clearly emblazoned on every element of the album. Brice is now known as reliable chart topping Nashville hit-­maker whose 2014 performance on the Academy of Country Music telecast where he picked up the trophy for “Song of the Year” “stole the show" (USA Today). With hits like Love Like Crazy, Parking Lot Party, Drinking Class, and Hard to Love, Brice will certainly bring the party to Ribfest! With 4 number 1 hits to his name, Lee Brice has captured the new American Country scene and was the fans choice of best performer at this year’s ACM Party for a Cause.

“We are very excited to have Lee Brice hit the Ribfest Stage this year” stated Jen Odin Cavalier 2016 Ribfest Chair. “He is an incredible entertainer, the crowds love him and his music and we know it will be a great show for all of the country fans! The lineup of entertainers this year is excellent and we are hoping to raise as much money as we can to help end domestic violence and child abuse.”
