Coastal Country Jam, country music's biggest beachfront festival, is back with its first-ever all ages show scheduled to take place on September 23rd and 24th. Taking place at Huntington State Beach, Coastal Country Jam is the only beachfront county music festival in California and has been the destination for some of country music's biggest stars. The event scheduled for September is a 2-day country music celebration and experience that will feature headliner and seven-time GRAMMY® award-winning trio
Lady Antebellum along with Old Dominion, Eli Young Band, Brett Young, Michael Ray, Lanco, Chris Hawkey, The Last Bandoleros, Grass Roots Revival, Scotty Mac Band, and Honey County. Tickets are currently on-sale for the event and can be purchased here: https://tinyurl.com/CCJTickets2017.

"There's something about the west coast. The air is lighter. The vibe is chill. Our music just feels like it belongs there. We can't wait to get back to California," explains Matthew Ramsey of Old Dominion.

Coastal Country Jam has been growing in popularity since it debuted last July with Chase Rice.

In April, Jake Owen headlined the festival and a video from the show can be seen here:https://youtu.be/OYtOZGHRn-g. This past weekend saw a capacity crowd come together for Billy Currington on the beach with southern California country music fans coming together to sing and dance on the beach. An Orange County Register piece on the show and previewing the September festival recently ran and can be seen here: https://tinyurl.com/CCJOCRegister.

About Lady Antebellum:

With a new sense of history and possibilities, Lady Antebellum's No. One selling album HEART BREAK had the group on a new mission - setting aside time to put themselves in new surroundings, and concentrate on writing and exploring musical endeavors with no distractions. With busbee in the producer's chair, the trio had a hand in writing eleven songs on HEART BREAK, resulting in their most intimate and heartfelt work to date. Following more than 18 million units and nine No. One hits, its nuances continue to collect acclaim from critics who note it "pushes the envelope in some subtle ways" with its "Mumford-country recollection of innocence" (Noisey), while less subtly catching the attention of others who boldly state "if you don't have the stirring HEART BREAK on repeat, you're not doing summer right" (Cosmopolitan). Over 2017, Lady A has criss-crossed the US on their YOU LOOK GOOD WORLD TOUR with special guests Kelsea Ballerini and Brett Young, and will trek to Europe and South Africa in the fall.
