It may only be January but some are already thinking of summer. And nothing says summer quite like like the Great New York State Fair.

The first free concert of the 13 day fair has been announced.

Concert Clue

A "Concert Clue" was posted on social media, teasing the first act who will be performing this year.

The clue features a picture of a magician pulling a rabbit from a hat and a 99-cent price tag.

Do you think you know who it is from the first clue?

We're guessing Cheap Trick. What's your guess?
