Phillip Phillips burst onto the national scene in 2012, winning a little singing show you may have heard of called “American Idol”.

His debut album went platinum, followed by two more successful releases. Phillip then returned with last year’s album, “Drift Back”. He also became a new father in 2019! He’s toured the world and played sold-out shows for years…and now he joins us for West of the Fest 2024!

Cassadee Pope
We’ve all seen the spinning chairs on the hit reality TV singing show, “The Voice”. In 2013, Cassadee Pope tried out for the show after fronting her own band for years. All the judges spun around and Cassadee was on her way to stardom, later becoming the first female winner of the show. Country success followed, and now she is returning to her pop-punk roots for the next stage of her career-describing her new sound as “coming back home”. We’re excited to welcome Cassadee Pope to rock out at West of the Fest 2024!
