First Annual Ray Wylie Hubbard Grit-N-Groove Festival

March 27th 2009 in Americana, Concerts, Festivals, Legends, alt.country

Ray Wylie Hubbard has always done things his own way. So after years of being asked to steward a festival he always put it off. Until now…

Hubbard has invited his favorite artists to play the First Annual Ray Wylie Hubbard Grit-N-Groove Festival to be held on Saturday April 4th in Luckenbach Texas (where else?!) From the poster design to the seating layout he has been involved in every aspect to ensure his festival has the grit and groove we have all come to expect and love about him. The vibe will be acoustic throughout the day with The Band of Heathens and Ray and his band closing the evening with full rockin’ band sets.

The concert will be held in the dance hall with seating on a first come first serve basis.

It’s from his new forthcoming Bloodshot Records album entitled Something’s Wrong/Lost Forever. It is set for a May 2009 release and will available on CD and limited edition LP.
