The Bradley Dulaney Band will play twice on Oct. 6 at the 114th Cherokee Indian Fair in Cherokee, North Carolina, first in the parade and later on the main stage. The double booking puts the Christian music group at the center of the fair’s opening-day lineup as the five-day event gets underway.

Why it matters: - The Bradley Dulaney Band gets a high-visibility opening-day spot at one of Cherokee’s biggest annual events. - Two performances in one day give the band a broad audience, from parade-goers to evening concert attendees. - The fair’s opening day is a key community moment, combining the parade, pageantry and live entertainment.
