Lady A

In six short years, the American Family Insurance Championship has evolved into one of the most-anticipated stops on the PGA TOUR Champions featuring professional golfers 50 and older. This year’s competitors include tournament host Steve Stricker plus Jerry Kelly, Bernhard Langer, Miguel Angel Jimenez, Vijay Singh, Colin Montgomerie, Retief Goosen and Darren Clarke. Tournament play is scheduled for June 10-12, but the community-focused event also features a 5K run/walk (June 4, Zimmer Championship Course), a celebrity foursome (June 11, featuring Derek Jeter and Juli Inkster vs. Andy North and Brett Favre), and a charity concert by an only-in-Madison lineup of Lady A, Boyz II Men and Edwin McCain (June 10, Breese Stevens Field).

press release: The 2022 American Family Insurance Championship concert, presented by Madison Media Partners, will feature Lady A,  with opening acts Boyz II Men and Edwin McCain, on Friday, June 10. This concert will be held at Breese Stevens Field, Madison, Wis., as a part of the PGA TOUR Champions American Family Insurance Championship. After being canceled in 2020 due to COVID-19 and moved to the American Family Insurance Amphitheater in Milwaukee in 2021, the concert returns to Madison’s popular outdoor music venue for 2022. 

Lady A, three-time Country Music Association (CMA) Vocal Group of the Year and five-time Grammy award winners among others, is known for their smooth and unique fusion of country, rock and pop. Their 2010 nine-times Platinum mega-hit, “Need You Now”, is one of the group’s 11 number-one hits. This year, Lady A released their eighth studio album, “What a Song Can Do” to critical acclaim and fan approval.

The best-selling R&B band of all time, Boyz II Men will showcase their trademark soaring melodies and complex harmonies as opening act. Their long list of awards includes three Grammys and six American Music Awards. Among their number-one hits are “End of the Road,” “I’ll Make Love to You,” and “One Sweet Day” with Mariah Carey.

Edwin McCain is best known for his enduring love songs, including the Billboard chart-topper “I’ll Be” as well as “I Could Not Ask For More.” Both hits have been covered numerous times by contestants on both “The Voice” and “American Idol.” McCain currently does more than 100 shows annually as a solo artist, most recently with symphony orchestras accompanying him as he performs his romantic classics.

“The American Family Insurance Championship concert has become a very popular event during tournament week, enabling us to raise even more dollars for charity,” said Nate Pokrass, tournament director. “After two years away, we’re pleased to be able to bring the concert back to Breese Stevens Field in Madison and expect to see many fans on June 10 ready to enjoy amazing performances by these artists.” 

The concert is part of the week-long American Family Insurance Championship activities beginning June 4, with tournament play June 10-12 at University Ridge Golf Course, featuring player/host Steve Stricker. 

Proceeds from the concert and championship are donated to the Steve Stricker American Family Insurance Foundation for distribution to American Family Children’s Hospital and other local charities impacting families and children. Since 2016, the championship has raised nearly $12.6 million and awarded 560 charitable grants.
