“The American Band”, Grand Funk Railroad will be traveling down the local tracks, heading back to Beaver Dam with their classic rock and funk sound on August 17. The group previously performed at the 2018 Dodge County Fair, fascinating fans on the grandstand stage with five decades of timeless tracks. Their upcoming performance at the fairgrounds will take place on Saturday evening at 8:00 pm.

Their ageless hits span more than five decades – since 1969 – with the group making Beaver Dam one of their spots on their 2024 Tour. This tour celebrates the 50th anniversary of “The Loco-Motion” and fifty-five years of making music for their loyal fans. Grand Funk Railroad has released seven gold albums and two platinum albums during their legacy. The group also collected ten certifications, exceeding 25 million copies sold worldwide. With hits like “Some Kind of Wonderful”, “We’re and American Band”, “Walk Like a Man”, “I’m Your Captain/Closer to Home” and “Locomotion”, it’s no wonder these albums were so successful and popular with both pop, funk and rock fans alike. The group recorded a total of nineteen charted singles, with eight Top 40 hits and two Number One hit singles among them.
