Zac Brown Band to Host First Southern Ground Music and Food Festival

The Zac Brown Band are gearing up for their inaugural Southern Ground Music and Food Festival, to be held April 8-10 at Clemson University's Littlejohn Coliseum Festival Lawn in Clemson, S.C.

Festival-goers should expect the full Zac Brown Band experience throughout the entire weekend, from the food to the music. The concert will showcase a brand-new state of the art mobile stage designed for the tour, featuring sky boxes, video and a light show.

Zac Brown Band will headline the first two nights of the three-night festival, with the final night being headlined by Amos Lee.

Other artists scheduled to perform over the three nights include Sonia Leigh, Levi Lowrey, Nic Cowan, The Wood Brothers, The Wheeler Boys and Blackberry Smoke, all of whom are signed to Brown's indie label, Southern Ground Artists, Inc. Another new duo, Secret Sisters, will also be on hand to open the show on Sunday.

"I'm definitely looking forward to being in that town in general," Levi Lowrey tells Taste of Country. "It's been talked about for so long that my band needs to get up there at some point, so to finally get to be up there with Zac and do it the right way will be fun."

Brown, who prides himself on treating the band's fans to fine southern cuisine, promises not to let anyone down over the three day event, as concessions will be created by Brown himself, along with the band's trusted chef Rusty Hamlin. Of course, many of the meals will be prepared with Brown's famous Southern Ground Grub GA Clay Spice Rub and his own Brown Sauce.

Pre-sale tickets will go live to ZBB fan club members on Tuesday, March 1 at 10:00AM ET and to the general public on Friday, March 4 at 10:00AM ET. Tickets will be available through Ticketmaster by clicking here.
