The 2015 Salute to America lineup has been announced as organizers prepare for Jefferson City's biggest summer event.

At Thursday Night Live, organizers officially kicked off the annual July 4 celebration by announcing the headlining acts of July 3-4.

On July 3, All My Rowdy Friends, a Hank Williams Jr. tribute band, will take the Capitol Main Stage at 8:30 p.m. The group features lead vocalist Frank Morrow, a Hank Williams Jr. look and sound alike.

On July 4, Kevin Chalfant's Journey Experience will be featured at 7:30 p.m. on the Capitol Main Stage.

Chalfant was described in a press release as performing with Journey in 1993 before original lead singer Steve Perry rejoined the band. Chalfant also created his own record label, Clique Records, and tours nationally performing Journey hits such as "Don't Stop Believin'."

Both concerts are free to the public.
