Here are 9 of our favorites.

His Back to My Roots Tour feels like a pretty natural fit for a Saturday night, especially if his hit "Good Time" has ever been on your weekend soundtrack.

8. Chris Janson

Chris Janson kicks off the Potter Center's season at Jackson College in Jackson on Sunday, October 4.

If you've ever cranked up "Buy Me a Boat," "Fix a Drink," or "Good Vibes," you already know this probably isn't going to be a sit-there-politely kind of night.

7. Grand Funk Railroad

Grand Funk Railroad rolls into the Potter Center on Saturday, October 24.

This "American Band" (from Flint) is still rocking more than five decades after bursting onto the scene.

6. Sugarland

Jennifer Nettles and Kristian Bush are celebrating 20 years of Enjoy the Ride, which means "Stay," "Settlin'," and a whole lot of 2000s country memories.

5. Zach Top

Zach Top takes over Van Andel Arena in Grand Rapids on Saturday, October 17, with Marty Stuart and His Fabulous Superlatives along for the ride.

If you like your country with plenty of fiddles and steel guitars, this is one you should definitely circle the date for.

4. The Jonas Brothers

The Jonas Brothers bring The Burning Up Tour All Over Again to Little Caesars Arena in Detroit on Sunday, October 25.

Not sure how we reached the point where the Jonas Brothers are nostalgia, but here we are.

3. The Red Clay Strays

The Red Clay Strays bring their Grateful Tour to Van Andel Arena on Saturday, October 3, with The Revivalists and Haley Reinhart.
