And to Round it All Off …
We are excited to present the following line-up for 2012! Our bands are all local/regional standouts, fine musicians, and they will provide just the right energy and entertainment to complete your World Beer Festival experience. So in addition to discovering great beers, these are bands you’ll want to follow, too.
Main Stage
Dixie Dynamite (12:00 noon – 2:00 PM )
Dixie Dynamite is an Old-School Country/Honky Tonk band from Columbia, SC. They don’t try one bit to fit in with the overly produced, pop-oriented Nashville sound. Instead, they bring a more raw form that is influenced by a little bit of rock & roll, and a whole lot of country.
Brian Conner and his Amazing Friends (2:00 noon – 4:00 PM)
Brian Conner and his soulful, funky, countrified, rockin, Amazing Friends create an unusual blend of danceable jams, hard driving rock songs, and expressive ballads.
Devils In Disguise (6:00 PM – 8:00 PM)
Cosmic Americana at its finest!!! While both their name and their history as a Gram Parsons cover band suggest a level of sonic indebtedness to the founder of Cosmic American Music, these local stalwarts are definitely not slouching either. Their original material has the fire of alt-country acts like The Backsliders or Alejandro Escovedo.
D.J. Able One 8:00pm – 10:00pm
Walking musical encyclopedia DJ Able One brings his own style of samples, cuts, and beats to popular jams.
