"We're truly disappointed we won't be bringing the show to Anderson. Our fans work hard for their money, and we refuse to put on a show that doesn't meet the standard they deserve," the festival added.
"Our focus remains where it's always been: Supporting our artists, honoring our fans, and delivering unforgettable nights throughout the country," the statement continued. "The shows ahead represent the heart of what Rock the Country stands for: music, community, and pride in where we come from."
"Loving America isn't political; it's who we are," the festival concluded.
