Nashville's Dylan Marlowe brings Country to Franklin Co. Fair line-up

MALONE | The Franklin County Fair is slated to run Aug. 8–16 this year, and organizers are proud to announce some new talent. Added to the 2026 line-up is Nashville's rising Country star, Dylan Marlowe, who'll headline the main stage with special guest Austin Snell on Aug. 14, joining the Rock line-up with Sebastian Bach, original vocalist for Skid Row and Great White. Rooted in the storytelling of Country's golden era but driven by the rebellious spark of Punk Rock, Sony Music Nashville's Marlowe is redefining what "three chords and the truth" can sound like. Raised in Statesboro, Ga., Marlowe blends small-town authenticity with an edge honed from influences like Eric Church, Blink-182, and Limp Bizkit — a mix that gives his music grit and heart. After dropping out of Georgia Southern to chase songwriting in Nashville, he quickly earned a publishing deal and went on to co-write Jon Pardi's No. 1 hit, "Last Night Lonely." His own releases — including the viral "drivers license" Country flip, fan-favorite "Record High," and "Boys Back Home" (featuring Dylan Scott) — have amassed more than 266 million streams, cementing him as one of Country's most dynamic new voices. Now, with his debut album, Mid-Twenties Crisis, Marlowe captures the chaos and clarity of his generation — a raw, unfiltered look at growing up, holding on, and learning to stand firm when life doesn't go as planned. Featuring collaborations with Riley Green and Dylan Scott, the record proves Marlowe isn't just following trends, he's creating his own path. Opening the evening is Georgia's Austin Snell, an artist known for pushing Country music's boundaries with raw energy and honest storytelling. His latest EP, "Home Sweet Hell," showcases his fearless approach to revealing life's harsh realities through music. The Fair Board is excited to add this powerful night of authentic Country music to the Classic Rock line-up at Franklin County Fair. Is there more to come? Stand by and find out!
