Inaugural Brew N’ Que Festival Tickets On Sale
A day filled with country music stars, barbeque food and plenty of brew is coming to the Mother Lode Fairgrounds in Sonora on Saturday, September 30th.
Doug Kennedy, Managing Partner with Trado Restaurant Corp, was Wednesday’s KVML “Newsmaker of the Day”.
The Corporation has finalized its mainstage line-up for the all-day country music concert. Trado previously confirmed artists Luke Pell from ABC’s “The Bachelorette,” Jackson Michelson and Chris Bandi. Joining them on the Unruly mainstage are Nashville country singer/songwriters Luke Combs and Tucker Beathard.
With gritty, grizzled vocals, Luke Combs stormed onto the country music landscape as a force to be reckoned with. Named a 2017 Artist To Watch, the 27 year-old Asheville, North Carolina native released his debut album “This One’s For You” on June 2nd, and opened with the largest album debut from a new country artist so far in 2017. Combs’ debut radio single “Hurricane” has quickly become a staple anthem for country fans. Combs second single, “When It Rains It Pours,” is hitting radio airwaves now.
Tucker Beathard’s ascent to stardom started with his single “Rock On”. With a rhythmic way of playing guitar, influenced by his innate drumming ability, Tucker has created some of contemporary country music’s most progressive songs. Having played with artists like Dierks Bentley, Keith Urban and Miranda Lambert, Tucker regularly bares his soul in front of a crowd.
The music is only a portion of the great entertainment found at the Unruly Country Brew ‘n Que Festival. The festival is comprised of five total events:
1) The live music mainstage.
2) A Kansas City Barbeque Society sanctioned professional barbecue competition.
3) A craft brewery and wine garden.
4) An open bull riding competition put on by Humpz N’ Hornz Buckin’ Bulls.
5) A West Coast Cornhole competition, a pro-style tournament with a $2,500 purse.
Sign-ups for the Cornhole tournament can be found at http://unrulycountryfestival.com/cornhole/.
