Smoke in the Valley proudly announces its 2013 music lineup bringing together national and local touring acts and exciting newcomers to the stage.
The festival once again invites area residents to come and experience a craft beer and chili event like no other in the state. The annual event will take place Saturday, October 5 in downtown Seymour.
Music Director Matt Bronson unveils a lineup that follows the contour of previous festivals celebrating the best in local talent to match national acts otherwise reserved for ticketed events.
New for 2013 local favorite Kung Fu will headline as part of their current fall regional tour. Other main stage headliners include Hubinger Street, fresh off appearances at this year’s Soupstock and SoNo Arts Festivals in addition to Massachusetts jam band Roots of Creation who are currently wrapping up their national tour.
Performers at this year’s festival also include Shameless, Charlie Don’t Surf and New Haven favorite IndiGroove performing on the Bridge Stage.
Established in 2010, the Smoke in the Valley Festival has grown organically into one of Connecticut’s leading independent craft beer festivals.
The festival has earned its reputation by attracting premier breweries, small and large, local and internationally. The festival’s music, beer and chili means there is something for everyone. Our craft beer offerings will be larger than ever with over 70 breweries pouring.
This compliments annual staples such as the Homebrew Competition and the 3rd Annual Chili Cook-Off. Information regarding submissions to both can be found by visiting the festivals website below.
Proceeds will benefit Seymour Tradition, whose goal is to raise money for Seymour Youth Sports programs, as well as Seymour fire and EMS companies. Seymour fire and EMS are all staffed by volunteer members.
