Kimberly Caldwell will headline the third annual Green Party presented
by Kiss 95.1 at the Bud Light Pavilion on Saturday, March 12 at 5 p.m.
Sick Puppies' initial success came on the back of the 2006 single "All
the Same" off their sophomore album Dressed Up as Life, which peaked
at No. 8 on the Billboard Alternative Songs chart. The trio's
popularity grew with the release of 2009's Tri-Polar, which spawned
the singles "You're Going Down" and "Odd One," which both entered the
top 10 on the Mainstream Rock chart. The album's third single,
"Maybe," charted on the Billboard Hot 100 and "Riptide," which was
released on February 8, has steadily climbed both the Mainstream Rock
and Alternative charts.
Kimberly Caldwell was a finalist on the second season of "American
Idol" in 2003. Since appearing on "Idol," Caldwell has worked as a
television host and commentator for networks such as CBS, MTV, FOX
Sports Network and TV Guide Network. Returning to her musical roots,
Caldwell is set to release her debut album, Without Regret, on April
19. The album's lead single, "Desperate Girls & Stupid Boys," was
released in December.
