“Relive the Classics and Celebrate the Legends”

The Island Resort and Casino, together with Radio Results Network, announce the next two performances to headline in the Island Showroom. “J.D. Fortune Rocks INXS” is scheduled for Saturday, June 21, 2025. This concert features Canadian singer-songwriter J.D. Fortune performing songs by the Australian rock band INXS, including “Pretty Vegas”, “Devil’s Party”, “Never Tear Us Apart”, and “Need You Tonight.” For seven years, J.D. Fortune toured the world as the charismatic frontman of the Australian rock band INXS after winning the CBS reality television series Rock Star: INXS against 50,000 other singers worldwide, replacing the late Michael Hutchence. Together they recorded Switch, their first studio album with Fortune, and the only album with new INXS material after the death of Hutchence. It went multi-platinum and Fortune’s co-write “Pretty Vegas” was INXS’s highest debut single ever on the Billboard charts.

Then on Saturday, July 5, don’t miss Always Loretta – the world’s only authentic re-creation of a Loretta Lynn Concert. The Coalminers – the band who toured with Loretta Lynn for over 40 years in front of more than 25 million fans at 5000+ shows worldwide – continues to celebrate the Queen of Country with this amazing presentation featuring Emily Portman as Loretta.

Together, The Coalminers and Emily deliver a 90-minute concert that is a wonderfully authentic glimpse into the touring world of Loretta Lynn – an evening of music and memories honoring The Queen of Country and her legendary career by a good friend who sounds just like her and by the band who knew her best. Audiences are treated to the biggest hits from Loretta’s legendary career, and other fan favorites that only occasionally made it into the normal tour song list. A highlight of the show is the “Get to Know Loretta” section, where The Coalminers take questions from the audience and share funny stories about life on the road with Loretta. The show is approved and authorized by the Loretta Lynn Estate.

Show tickets for each tribute are priced at $20.

Tickets for all three shows go on sale Thursday, February 13 at 10 a.m. ET. Order by phone with credit card: 877-ISL-SHOW or online: islandresortandcasino.com
