Black Oak Casino Live Entertainment Lineup for May

TUOLUMNE, CA (April 27, 2009) – American Idol star Josh Gracin is one of many acclaimed performers that will be appearing at Black Oak Casino in May.  Gracin was one of the most charismatic and distinctive performers in the second season of American Idol, and the first to bring country music to the pop-oriented hit show. Today, he’s one of only two new country artists in recent times to release a debut album with three Top 5 country hits.

Lacy J. Dalton is another country star that will be performing in May.  Dalton is one of the most instantly recognizable voices in music with hits such as “Takin’ it Easy,” and was dubbed “Country’s Bonnie Raitt” by People magazine.
