For the first time ever, 40+ independent artists that lean toward the “Outlaw Country” music genre will be assembled at one event!
The gates open to Outlaw Fest 2014 on October 9th, and will remain wide-open until 7 PM, October 12th. Over 40 hours of country/southern rock, bluegrass, folk, and everything in-between. It will be presented at the world famous, Wishbone Off-Road Park, located in Bowling Green, KY. While starting as a grassroots local effort, Outlaw Fest 2014 has morphed into an event of national proportions, with advance ticket sales reflecting attendees from over 25 states!
Outlaw legend, Billy Joe Shaver, headlines the Friday night event. His performance will be made legendary by having his best friend, Willie Nelson’s granddaughter, Raelyn Nelson, and her band as his opening act. Another history-making moment will be when Waylon Jennings’ oldest son, Terry Jennings, takes the stage, for the first time ever, to tell stories of his life with the original outlaw. Terry’s segment is entitled, “Between Fathers & Sons,” and end with him taking questions from the audience.
In addition to artists suchas Grammy nominated, Steeldrivers and multi-platinum songwriter, Tom Ghent, there will be a huge “Outlaw Mall” vendor area with vendors from all over the United States. There will be appearances by stars from the “Moonshiner” TV series, the History Channel’s, “Appalachian Outlaws,” and the “REAL Hatfield & McCoys.”
Free primitive camping is provided with paid admission. More information can be found at www.OutlawFest.com or by emailing us at info@outlawfest.com
