Six Flags Great America in Gurnee is making their amusement park even more entertaining with its ‘Sunday Rocks! Concert Series’ presented by Dance Dance Revolution and Chase.

During the summer, on specific Sundays, Six Flags Great America is featuring many well-known national touring acts to you for free (with theme park admission or a season pass). Singer & rapper, Sean Kingston made his way to the park on July 6th and Demi Lovato kicked off the series on June 22nd.

Last Sunday, pop/rock musician Gavin DeGraw made his debut at Great America performing in a set made to resemble a volcano in the Operation SpyGirl Amphitheater.

Opening for DeGraw was Marié (Mar-ee-ay) Digby, whose single “Say It Again” hit the airwaves this summer. Digby is most known for her YouTube video, performing an acoustic rendition of Rihanna’s song “Umbrella”.

DeGraw came out to a screaming crowd with his pale yellow Fender Telecaster and moved onto his sparkling baby grand piano. He then returned to the guitar, but this time to a nice beautiful Gibson Les Paul.

DeGraw sang his hits, “Chariot”, “I Don’t Want To Be” and “In Love With A Girl” to several hundred adoring fans. I’m usually one to point out how different singers’ vocals are live vs. their albums, but DeGraw has an amazing voice. His live vocals sound exactly how you hear him on the radio, his albums or perhaps his myspace page.

Future acts slated to appear at Six Flags Great America are R&B artist and “Dancing with the Stars” performer, Mario on July 20th. July 27th British pop sensation Natasha Bedingfield will wow the crowd and closing the series in a special Saturday performance is American Idol winner, Jordin Sparks who will take to the stage on August 16th.

Sunday Rocks! Concert Series is a great deal for anyone who wants to come to the park. They’ll get to take advantage of all the rides, food and fun Six Flags Great America offers. Plus, they’ll get to see a show for free.
