Here’s your chance to win two tickets to this week’s Carnavalito Music Festival at Pisgah Brewing, featuring Toubab Kewe, who has invited Sol Driven Train, The Broadcast, DJ Camaro and Chompin’ At The Bit to join them.

In the comments section on this post, be the first to give me the name of the woman who fronts The Broadcast, and you’ll win.

Here are the details:

Toubab Krewe are proud to announce the second incarnation of the Carnavalito Music Festival scheduled for July 3rd & 4th, 2013 at Pisgah Brewing Company in Black Mountain, NC. This year’s main event will be held on Independence Day at Pisgah’s outdoor amphitheater stage for a one-of-a-kind experience surrounded by Western North Carolina’s Appalachian mountains. Hosts Toubab Krewe have invited ‘Lowcountry Roots Rock Band’ Sol Driven Train from Charleston, SC, female-fronted neo-soul powerhouse The Broadcast from Asheville, NC, plus Asheville’s DJ Camaro and Chompin’ At The Bit to join them in a celebration that begins at 3 pm.

For fans looking to kick off their holiday a little early, Toubab Krewe will be playing on Pisgah Brewing Company’s newly revamped indoor stage on July 3rd. This special performance is free for patrons who have purchased an advanced ticket to the July 4th all day event and will feature Toubab Krewe in an intimate setting.

Make traveling to and from the event easier by utilizing event shuttles or staying at the nearby campground. Shuttles will be available both days from downtown Asheville to the brewery. KOA, located less than 1 mile down the road from the event, is offering a discounted rate for ticket holders. Families are encouraged to attend. Kids 10 and under are admitted free with a paid adult each day. Kid friendly activities, shuttle pricing, vendors and more will be announced in the coming weeks.

Tickets for July 3rd are $12 in advance/ $15 day of show or free with a paid ticket for July 4th. Tickets for July 4 are $18 in advance/ $22 day of show.
