Country Music Legend Vince Gill To Join Irsay Band For Free Vegas Show

Public invited to free March 4 exhibition & concert with Rock Hall Members Billy Gibbons, Stephen Stills & Ann Wilson.

Country Music Legend Vince Gill To Join Irsay Band For Free Vegas Show

Country Music Hall of Famer and 22-time Grammy winner Vince Gill will join Indianapolis Colts Owner & CEO Jim Irsay and his all-star band for a free, one-night-only performance in Las Vegas celebrating The Jim Irsay Collection, his traveling museum of iconic artifacts from rock music, American history and pop culture.

The March 4 event will feature a free concert by The Jim Irsay Band, led by Irsay on vocals. The band will be joined by Gill, as well as Rock & Roll Hall of Famers Billy Gibbons (ZZ Top), Stephen Stills (Crosby, Stills & Nash; Buffalo Springfield) and Ann Wilson (Heart). The evening also will include a special tribute to the late David Crosby, legendary member of Crosby, Stills & Nash and The Byrds, who recently passed away.

One of the most popular artists in modern country music, Gill is famous for his top-notch songwriting, world-class guitar playing and warm, soaring tenor, all wrapped up in a quick and easy wit. Gill achieved his big breakthrough in 1990 with "When I Call Your Name," which won both the Country Music Association's (CMA) Single and Song of the Year awards as well as a Grammy for Best Country Vocal Performance, Male.

Since then, Gill has won 17 additional CMA Awards, 22 Grammy Awards, and eight Academy of Country Music Awards. In 1991, Gill was invited to become a member of The Grand Ole Opry, and in 2007 was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame. In 2012 he was honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. A gifted songwriter, Gill's compositions earned him entry into the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2005 and was awarded the prestigious BMI Icon award in 2014.

Throughout his career he has released 20 albums, sold over 30 million albums, and charted 45 singles. Always considering himself a musician above all else, Gill has over the years been a part of some iconic bands including Pure Prairie League, The Notorious Cherry Bombs, and The Time Jumpers. In 2022, Gill was inducted into the Musician's Hall of Fame. In 2017 Vince was asked to join the Eagles on the road and continues to be a part of that historic band's tour.
