Montgomery Gentry Replaces Sammy Kershaw At Catt County Fair

There's good news and there's bad news if you were hoping to see Sammy Kershaw at the Cattaraugus County Fair this year.

Sammy Kershaw cancels show at Cattaraugus County Fair 2026

90's country superstar was set to play at the Cattaraugus County Fair on August 5th this year, but unfortunately has had to cancel his show due to illness. It's not the only show he's had to cancel either. He had to cancel his August 2nd performance at the Ohio State Fair, the Delaware State Fair on July 31, and a show in Huntsville, Alabama on August 1st as well due to what they're calling an "unspecified illness."

Montgomery Gentry featuring Eddie Montgomery will be filling in

I said there was good news and there was bad news. The bad news is about Sammy Kershaw. The good news is that there's still a show to be seen. They've been able to secure Montgomery Gentry featuring Eddie Montgomery to take Kershaw's spot.
