Smash Mouth will perform at the infield June 21 to kick off the Placer County Fair.

Placer County Fair manager John Javidan said that Smash Mouth’s fun attitude will be a "great atmosphere for the Placer County Fair. We are in the business of creating fun for our visitors. The outdoor concert will be a huge kick-off for four days of family fun at the Fair."

Collectively, the band Smash Mouth has sold more than 10 million albums worldwide. Their music has found its way into numerous movies and television series from “Shrek” to “Dr. Seuss” to “Scooby Doo” and recently “Diary of A Wimpy Kid.”
