Nate Michaels to open for country legend Trace Adkins

Local country artist and Nashville recording talent Nate Michaels is set to open for multi-platinum country music icon Trace Adkins this Friday at Concerts at Point of the Bluff on Keuka Lake.

Michaels, a full-time musician from Clyde, New York, will take the stage in front of a home-region crowd, marking a milestone in his rising career. Known for his authentic lyrics and modern country-rock sound, he’s built a strong fanbase through heartfelt performances and studio work in Nashville.


“This is a dream come true,” said Michaels. “To share a stage with someone like Trace Adkins—especially here in the Finger Lakes where it all started for me—is an honor I’ll never forget.”

Concerts at Point of the Bluff, located on the western shore of Keuka Lake, has earned a reputation for showcasing nationally touring acts in an intimate setting. With vineyard views and top-tier acoustics, it’s become a favorite destination for live music in the Finger Lakes.

As Adkins headlines with his signature baritone and chart-topping hits, Michaels is set to bring energy and emotion to the opener—blending small-town storytelling with Nashville polish.

Gates open at 5 p.m. on July 25. Tickets are available at concertsatpob.com, and demand is high.
