Setting the Stage for Sunshine Get Down
Following the triumphant debut of last year’s Sunshine Get Down at Florida Sand Music Ranch in Brooksville, Florida. Thrilled organizers are unveiling the roster for the upcoming sophomore edition, slated for May 16-18. With an impressive lineup of 25 bands, they significantly raise the stakes. Once again, Florida Sand (formerly known as Sertoma Youth Ranch) will host the festivities across the main stage and the adjacent second stage, ensuring a dynamic musical experience over three unforgettable days.
At the forefront of the lineup is New Jersey’s own Rainbow Full of Sound, featuring the accomplished keyboardist Waynard Scheller, offering an enthralling rendition of Dead Zep’s iconic catalog. Additionally, Melody Trucks and Vaylor Trucks, along with Melody’s band, pay homage to their late father, Butch Trucks, the esteemed founder and drummer of the Allman Brothers Band.
Beyond State Lines
Before delving into the Sunshine State’s offerings, let’s spotlight a couple of out-of-state acts. First up is Colorado’s Ponder the Albatross, skillfully blending punk, jam, and newgrass genres. Following them, we have Georgia’s funk powerhouse Adam and the Testifiers. And speaking of Georgia, it was inevitable that The Ain’t Sisters and Tire Fire would make the pilgrimage to Florida Sand, transcending state borders with their magnetic presence.
For those inclined to engage in the covers-vs-originals debate, there’s something for everyone to enjoy. As previously mentioned, the lineup boasts tributes to The Dead, Zep, and ABB, alongside Antelope: A Tribute to the Band Phish, Wall of Echoes (honoring Pink Floyd), and Mushroom Soup (a nod to ABB).
Diverse Sounds Await
Expect soul-stirring acoustic and bluegrass melodies from Free Range Strange, Light the Wire, and The Wandering Hours, while original indie rock gems await from Harber Wynn, Row Jomah, shoeless soul, and HoneyWhat.
And for aficionados of electrifying rock performances, look no further than Tand, Minim, Grindstone Sinners, Tony Tyler Band, and Earth Bombs Mars, complemented by the infectious grooves of The Strangeways and The Low Heavies. Lastly, the exceptional talent nurtured by the Sgammato School of Music, under the expert guidance of Chris Sgammato, adds another layer of depth to the lineup.
It’s time to immerse yourself in the Sunshine State’s musical extravaganza at Florida Sand! Act fast, as early-bird ticket sales conclude on January 15.
