New York, NY (Top40 Charts / Spoondog Entertainment Group) Alternative Country Rock band Guns of Nevada is excited to perform at Live Nation and ACM Promoter, Brian O'Connell's, inaugural
Watershed Music Festival. Located at The Gorge Amphitheater in the Pacific Northwest, it's an ideal setting with breathtaking landscape and sweeping views of the Columbia River. With superstars ranging from Dierks Bentley, Kix Brooks, Sara Evans, Brantley Gilbert,
Miranda Lambert,
Blake Shelton and many others expect the event to be a memorable experience fans will not forget.
This will be the third time Guns of Nevada has played at the picturesque Gorge Amphitheater. This time they will be performing songs off their new album titled "SONGS IN THE KEY OF WHISKEY." To encourage their fans to experience them live, Guns of Nevada is holding a drawing for a FREE pass for the entire three-day festival (valued at $90), plus a "SONGS IN THE KEY OF WHISKEY" CD autographed by the band and currently available for purchase on iTunes. The drawing and winner will be announced June 23, 2012. The winner must meet three criteria: registered with the Guns of Nevada mailing list at GunsofNevada.com; "LIKE" the Guns of Nevada Facebook page; and follow @GunsofNevada on Twitter. Winner announcement and details will be posted on the Guns of Nevada Facebook page.
Although considered alternative country rock, Guns of Nevada is a unique mix of Cowpunk meets Americana with their melodic three and four part harmonies, foot-stomping groove and fist pounding rhythms. According to
Dennis Pelowski, Manager of The Meat Puppets "Guns of Nevada's new album 'SONGS IN THE KEY OF WHISKEY' is cool. Go figure. How did a band of Seattle-ites come up showing the talents of true southern soul country - and that includes Skynyrd. You will want this as road trip fuel." The first single off their new album "My Bible and My Gun," can be heard here.
"This is just one of several announcements we have planned for Guns of Nevada in 2012," says manager, Jaye English, of Spoondog Entertainment Group. If you haven't seen a Guns of Nevada show, the
Watershed Music Festival is the perfect opportunity to catch them live against the Gorge's visually stunning backdrop.
Three day festival passes will start at $90 and go on sale May 5 at ticketmaster.com and LiveNation.com.
