OREM — To celebrate Utah's Pioneer Day, country musicians Restless Heart and Collin Raye will perform at 8 p.m. July 24 at the SCERA Shell Outdoor Theatre, 699 S. State.

Raye has been singing since he was a child and has a current hit called "Mid-life Chrysler" on country radio. Restless Heart is a country quintet that reunited after a fallout in the '90s. Some of their top hits include "You Can Depend On Me" and "When She Cries."

"Both groups dominated charts for more than a decade," said Adam J. Robertson, SCERA's president and chief executive. "We were thrilled to hear they were touring together. … It's not often you can get two headliners for the price of one. And country music and Pioneer Day go together perfectly."

Tickets for the event are $15 for adults and $12 for children age 3 to 11, students with identification and seniors 65 and older. Those attending should bring a blanket or can rent a chair on a first-come, first-served basis for $1.

To purchase tickets, go to www.scera.org, call 801-225-ARTS or visit the theater at 745 S. State between 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. weekdays or noon to 6 p.m. Saturday.
