(SACRAMENTO, CA) - Struggle Jennings brings his raspy, country, hip-hop style vocals to the California State Fair on Monday, July 20, 2026 as part of the Toyota Concert Series on the Sky River Casino Stage. His sound blends country roots with modern flair.
The grandson of legendary country music icon Waylon Jennings, Struggle is part of a long legacy of gangsters, outlaws and rock stars. Growing up as a "self-proclaimed" black sheep in his family, he fought his way out of the streets of West Nashville and into the studio where he would create the foundation for what has become his personal contribution to the Jennings family legacy.
Struggle’s message of strength, determination, and courage in the face of adversity continues to connect and resonate with people around the world. By sharing his story with honesty and passion he has developed a large and loyal fanbase who relate not only to his music but also to his personal journey.
Since being released from prison in 2016, Struggle has performed for sold-out crowds across the country and released multiple projects. He is finally poised to take his place as a true modern-day outlaw and secure his position as the Godfather of the burgeoning "Outlaw Hip-hop Rock & roll movement".
“Bringing Struggle Jennings to the Fair is about connecting fans who appreciate music with a fusion of real-life stories,” said Tom Martinez, CEO of Cal Expo and the California State Fair.
