(KAIR)--The line-up is complete, as all artists are now finalized for Atchison's annual Lakefest concert, planned for July 15th at Warnock Lake.

Joining previously announced headliner Tyler Farr are two other major names in country music, Frankie Ballard and RaeLynn.

Ballard is known for such songs as "Young and Crazy" and "It All Started With a Beer," while RaeLynn's first single is "God Made Girls."

Amelia Earhart Festival Coordinator Jacque Pregont says both Ballard and RaeLynn saw their debut singles hit number one, with those wanting to see them performed live now able to buy gift certificates, in advance of the official start of ticket sales. "What we do, because ticket's don't actually go on sale until May 1st, we make gift certificates," Pregont tells MSC News. "Those gift certificates are $25, the price of an advanced ticket, and you can buy the gift certificate at the Chamber, and then they can come in anytime after the First of May and exchange that gift certificate."

Lakefest is held annually at Atchison's Warnock Lake, serving as the kick-off for Atchison's Amelia Earhart Festival, held each July in honor of the famed aviatrix Amelia Earhart, who called Atchison her hometown.

The two day festival, including Lakefest, is planned for July 15th and 16th 2016, as the event marks its 20th anniversary.
