A country singer-songwriter with a midwestern rock flair, Clayton Anderson grew up on the lakes of Southern Indiana — fishing, boating, and playing his guitar. As a student at Indiana University, he kicked off his music career, building a grassroots fan following playing local bars and parties.
In 2008, he stepped onstage at Kenny Chesney’s Next Big Star Battle in Cincinnati and walked off as the winner. He released his debut album, Torn Jeans & Tailgates, in 2011, followed by Right Where I Belong (2014) and Only to Borrow (2016). Pre-COVID, he toured nonstop, opening for Eric Church, Blake Shelton, Jason Aldean, Jimmy Buffett, Thomas Rhett, Lee Brice, and Carly Pearce. During the pandemic, Anderson got creative by partnering with the Bud Light Dive Bar Tour: Home Edition and launching socially-distanced “Lake Tour” concerts. Last year saw the release of “Only Us,” one of his most-streamed songs to date.

This year’s entertainment will take place throughout the city, with acts performing in Downtown La Porte, at the Dennis F. Smith Amphitheater in Fox Park and at Stone Lake Beach. The shows are free to the public and open to all ages. With the performers spanning across multiple genres, Schreiber said there is a live show for everyone to enjoy.
“After a successful inaugural event last year, our team knew we had to take LakeFest 2022 to the next level,” Schreiber said. “We are confident these performers will do just that. Clayton Anderson is a rising star in the country music industry – fans may never get to see one of his concerts for free again. The ‘80s Bash, featuring awesome pop and rock hits from the decade, plus another amazing fireworks show, will be a fun night for all. And we are thrilled to add a comedy show to expand our lineup as well. Live entertainment along our lakes is one of the best parts of summer in La Porte, and we cannot wait to celebrate what makes our city special with these first-rate acts.”

Although we did arrive very early in the morning, the boat launch was quite nice, so I decided to educate some of my readers about these two lakes Continue Reading.. .
