QUAKERTOWN, Pa. — A country music singer whose first two albums have gone gold and who has released nine gold and platinum hits in the past decade is coming to Univest Performance Center.
And so is a tribute to perhaps the biggest rock band of all time.
Dylan Scott, perhaps best known for his 2016 triple-platinum hit "My Girl," will perform at 6 p.m. Friday, Sept. 12, as the final show for the Sounds of Summer concert series at the outdoor amphitheater at 301 W. Mill St., Quakertown.
And Get The Led Out, which performs the music of 1970s heavy metal band Led Zeppelin, will perform at 6 p.m. Friday, Aug. 29.
Tickets, at $41 for lawn seating and $51-$120 for reserved seats for Scott and $32 for lawn seating and $40 to $105 for reserved seats for Get the Led Out, go on sale at 8:30 a.m. Friday, April 11 at the Univest Performance Center website.Univest Performance Center

Chart-topping hits, and awards
Scott's self-titled debut album was released in 2016 and immediately established him as a hit — peaking at No. 5 on the Country Albums chart and selling gold.
In addition to "My Girl," which hit No. 1 on the Country Airplay chart, the album produced the platinum, No. 2-charting hit "Hooked" and the gold hit "Crazy Over Me."
A 2019 EP, "Nothin' to Do Town," charted at No. 3 and produced the platinum No. 2 hit "Nobody," as well as the gold title song.
His 2022 sophomore album, "Livin' My Best Life," produced two No. 1 hits — the platinum "Can't Have Mine (Find You a Girl)" and the gold "New Truck." The album also sold gold.
Scott since has released a No. 2 gold hit, "Boys Back Home (with Dylan Marlowe)," and another No. 1 hit, last year's "This Town's Been Too Good to Us."
He has plans to release a third album, "Easy Does It," on May 30.
Scott in 2023 and 2024 was nominated for the Academy of Country Music Award for New Male Artist of the Year. In 2023, he won a Gospel Music Association Dove Award for the song “Good Morning Mercy.”
Series building for summer
The Philadelphia-based Get The Led Out consists of six veteran multi-instrumentalists who re-create Led Zeppelin's catalog, with a strong focus on the early years and also present deeper cuts.
It also includes a special “acoustic set” with Zep favorites such as “Tangerine” and "Hey Hey What Can I Do."
But it also plays the expected Led Zeppelin songs: "Dazed and Confused," "Stairway to Heaven" and "Whole Lotta Love."
The group also headlined the Sounds of Summer series last year.
The new shows are the fourth and fifth to be announced for the Sounds of Summer series this year.
Previously announced were The Little Mermen, which calls itself the ultimate Disney tribute band, on June 28; Yächtley Crëw, a Los Angeles band that plays the 1970s and '80s soft rock sounds of the Yacht Rock trend, on July 16; and Arrival From Sweden: The Music of ABBA, on July 18.
Tickets for all those shows also remain available at the performance center website.
