Del Yeah Fest? You know what we say to that

by Rebecca Sulock 

We heard about this first from the Black Mountain Music Scene, and it sounds damn cool. WNCW and McCoury Music are planning the first ever Del Yeah weekend (over Labor Day weekend). Two days, two venues, bands not all announced, but will feature (obviously) the Del McCoury Band.
From the news release:
“Initial plans include shows on September 4 and 5 featuring the award-winning Del McCoury Band and their friends in the Emmitt-Nershi Band, along with a full complement of yet-to-be-named artists (including regional favorites), presented at the Pisgah Brewing Company (Black Mountain) and the U.S. National Whitewater Center (Charlotte) respectively.
Shows will be programmed for a full afternoon and evening’s worth of music and entertainment, culminating in closing jam sessions that will have audiences on the edge of their seats — or dancing to the music — all night long. More.
