Summer Sendoff: Telluride Blues & Brews

In Buzz, Music Festivals by Kash$

One part craft beer, one part blues (classic rock / jam band / comedy mash-up) and one part magical Colorado mountain oasis …

Say “hello” to the 23rd annual Telluride Blues and Brews Festival, held September 16-18, where you’ll find the FestivalsforLife crew celebrating the final days of summer. To be exact, the final day of summer 2016 is Sept. 21. Cue deep sigh.

There’s no better way to send off an epic summer festival season than with performances from headliners such as Joe Walsh, Gary Clark Jr., The Mick Fleetwood Blues Band and Jason Isbell. Not to forget other favorites such as Anders Osborne, Shakey Graves, North Mississippi Allstars and The California Honeydrops, as well as comedians Sam Tallent and Troy Walker.

Of course, it’s not just about the music. It’s about the brews.  The festival will showcase 55 microbreweries, bringing over 170 styles of craft beer and ciders to festivalgoers.

Joins us as we koozie up, blues out and give one heck of a “sayonara” to summer.
