Washington Nationals announce lineup for 2014 NatsLive free postgame concert series

The Washington Nationals announced today that Plain White T's (June 5), Austin Mahone (July 19) and Martina McBride (August 16) will comprise the lineup for the 2014 NatsLive FREE Postgame Concert Series following select Nationals home games throughout this summer.

"I'm so excited for the opportunity to play for Nats fans at beautiful Nationals Park!" said 14-time Grammy Award nominee Martina McBride, whose performance will wrap up the series in mid-August. "To be able to sing after a Nationals game in our nation's capital sounds like an amazing time! I'm looking forward to putting on a great show for D.C.'s loyal baseball and music fans."

Each performance will begin approximately 15 minutes after the final out of the given Nationals game. Fans who wish to attend the free concerts must have a valid ticket for that day's game, which can be purchased at nationals.com/NatsLive. Concert Ticket Packs are also available at nationals.com/flex for those who want to ensure their seat for all three games that will be followed by a postgame concert.

"This is the fourth consecutive season we will deliver baseball and music as part of the NatsLive FREE Postgame Concert Series and we are incredibly excited about this year's lineup," Nationals Chief Revenue & Marketing Officer Valerie Camillo said. "With a rock band, a rising star on the pop music charts and a country legend, we have something for everyone. These concerts are a great value to our fans who, in addition to watching our dynamic team take the field, will also be able to see best-selling artists perform at no additional cost."
