Due to name of group
Allegations of racism are costing country-rock band Confederate Railroad another gig.
The band was dropped from a second fair due to its controversial name.
Officials with the Ulster County Fair in New York released a statement yesterday, calling the band's name a "symbol of division and racism."
Looks like we won’t be coming to New York next week. https://t.co/iidCIAwG67
