Three-day music festival takes place this fall

The inaugural Jamboree in the Mountains festival will be held September 8-10 at the Pennshorn Speedway in Pennsboro, West Virginia. Fifteen acts are set to perform including Sammy Kershaw, Drake White, Craig Morgan, Darryl Worley, Mark Wills, Ricochet, Jamie O’Neal, David Lee Murphy, Ty Herndon, Chris Cagle and more are set to perform.

“I was born in Charleston and have deep roots in the West Virginia area. I have worked with so many of these great artists over the years and wanted to bring an event to the area that would be celebrated not tolerated,” says Dustin Knowlton, Big Time Entertainment president. “After talking with all the local officials and venue team, we decided this was the perfect location for a three-day festival that would offer up camping, shower facilities, food vendors, and, of course, great country music.”

“We are excited to be performing at this festival,” says Heath Wright of Ricochet. “Doing events like this is so much fun because we, as artists, don’t always see each other when we are home so we get to spend time catching up on the road. Sometimes we even jump on stage together and do impromptu jam sessions and just have fun like we did when we were having hit records. This one is gonna be a lot of fun.”

The country music festival will offer up 15 acts over the span of three days averaging the ticket buyer less than $7 a concert. Collectively, these select hit-makers have scored 17 No. 1 singles and 57 Top 10 singles and sold millions of albums.

Tickets prices range from $115-165 for the three day event. No single tickets are being offered.
