Sammy Kershaw and Deana Carter have been announced to perform at the 12th B’s on the River Rib Fest Saturday, July 15, 2023 in Watertown. Both Kershaw and Carter will bring impressive set lists filled with songs the audience is guaranteed to love.
“Each year, we’ve tried to do a great back-to-back pairing for the last two acts of the night,” said B’s on the River owner Bryan Bauman. “It doesn’t get any better for country fans than having these two great artists on the same bill.”
One more act for Saturday, as well as the entertainment for the BOB 106 FM pre-Rib Fest party Friday, July 14, are still to be announced. Tickets and camping for Rib Fest 2023 went on sale the morning of Jan. 23 and are available now at

In addition to the live music, Rib Fest will also include the famous backyard BBQ rib contest and rib tasting, along with the ever-popular all-you-can-eat chicken and rib dinner, again featuring St. Louis-style ribs.
Festivities Begin Saturday at 2 p.m., and the day’s schedule will also include children’s activities (free with paid admission to the event), a bean bag tournament, and more. B’s on the River’s food wagon, featuring mini donuts, cheese curds and additional offerings will also be available. The night’s entertainment will be capped off by a special fireworks display.
Kicking the weekend off Friday, July 14 is the BOB 106 FM pre-Rib Fest Party. There is no cover for the live music (artist to be announced) or to attend the Friday night festivities. The night will also feature the ever-popular pork chop dinner plus prizes and last-minute RIb Fest ticket giveaways. Baumann also encourages fans to “Camp along the Crow,” and make a weekend out of it by staying at B’s on the River the entire weekend.
