OTTUMWA, IOWA -- The Ottumwa Bridge View Center will bring and up-and-coming country music band Florida Georgia Line to Ottumwa September 29.

Florida Georgia Line has gained a steady following online and through their YouTube channel, and Bridge View is hoping for a great crowd at their stop in the City of Bridges.

"These guys I know are probably the next big act," said Larry Gawronski, Executive Director of the Bridge View Center. "They follow in the lines of Eric Church, Jake Owen, Jason Aldean, as far as having a great following of country roots. And I love where their name came from -- one of the guys is from Florida and the other's from Georgia, so they said, let's call it Florida Georgia Line."

Tickets will go on sale at 10 a.m. this Friday, August 10, at the Bridge View Center box office. They can also be purchased online through www.ticketmaster.com.
