Country musician Drake Milligan will get fans revved up for the Autotrader 400 with a pre-race concert at EchoPark Speedway on Sunday, Feb. 22.
Milligan – an electrifying entertainer known for his unique twist of traditional Country – will perform live for fans before NASCAR’s best hit the track for 400 miles of thrilling action. New for the Autotrader 400, the pre-race concert stage will be located in the EchoPark Speedway Fan Zone, providing all fans attending the race an opportunity to get stage-front access to Milligan’s concert as a complimentary perk of their race ticket.
“We’re always looking for ways to deliver more value and entertainment for our fans,” said EchoPark Speedway Executive Vice President and General Manager Brandon Hutchison. “Today’s announcement is a home run on both fronts: the new Fan Zone location for the pre-race concert will enable more of our fans to see the show from up close, and Drake Milligan is a tremendous musician that I know our guests will enjoy.”
With hits like “Honky Tonkin’ About”, “I Got a Problem”, and “Sounds Like Something I’d Do”, Milligan has earned praise from fans, peers, and major media alike. The Texas native’s catalog of music has accumulated over 250 million streams. Inspired by industry titans George Strait and Elvis Presley, Milligan burst onto the national music stage in 2022 with his debut album Dallas/Fort Worth. Milligan’s pre-race concert at EchoPark Speedway on Feb. 22 is part of the “Tumbleweed World Tour”, which began with the launch of his sophomore album Tumbleweed in Nov. 2025.
