Mike Epps and Wheeler Walker Jr. added to del Lago’s Vine Showroom lineup

Tickets for both shows on sale Fri., May 5

Waterloo, N.Y. – Two shows have been added to del Lago Resort & Casino’s Vine Showroom lineup: Mike Epps will perform Fri., Jul. 7; and satirical country music artist Wheeler Walker Jr. will perform Sat., Sept. 30 as part of his Spread Eagle Tour. Both shows take place at 8:00 p.m., and tickets go on sale this Fri., May 5 at 10:00 a.m. More information can be found at: dellagoresort.com/entertainment/#upcoming-events.

Mike Epps is generating an extraordinary amount of buzz among his peers for being one of the funniest comic actors in town, and for his burgeoning dramatic talent. He steadily climbed his way up the stand-up comedy ranks, becoming recognized by a national audience in 1995 after appearing on HBO’s Def Comedy Jam. His later stand-up specials include his hugely successful Mike Epps: Under Rated and Never Faded and Mike Epps: Don’t Take it Personal.

Epps’ acting credits include his notable roles in the cult hits Next Friday, Friday After Next and All About the Benjamins, as well as critically acclaimed films and TV shows including Sparkle, The Hangover, Girls Trip, Bessie and Dolemite is My Name alongside Eddie Murphy. He received NAACP Image awards for his roles in LeBron James’ television series Survivor’s Remorse, and the film Jumping the Broom.

Since Wheeler Walker Jr. disappeared four years ago, many thought he was finished. But a strange thing happened after he left – he only got bigger! His mystique grew, his popularity surged and his music was consumed to such an extreme that he was the third most streamed country artist in the world in 2021. Wheeler’s release of his album Sex, Drugs & Country Music has many claiming it is already the greatest country album of all time. One listen through Sex, Drugs & Country reveals where Wheeler’s unrivaled confidence comes from. Produced by Dave Cobb and recorded at historic RCA Studio A, the album is a loud, unapologetic roar of a comeback.
