"Jessie's Girl" singer Rick Springfield is set to rock the Turning Stone Casino on Friday, June 24th, it was recently announced.

The June 24th concert will mark Rick Springfield's return to the area, having last played the New York State Fair in 2019. Springfield has rocked the Turning Stone's Event Center several times since it opened in 1999.

Springfield is also an accomplished author. His 2010 memoir Late, Late at Night was voted among the top 25 rock memoirs by Rolling Stone magazine, and he published a novel in 2014 titled Magnificent Vibration.
