Today Epic Rides announced the Four Peaks Brewing Co. Concert Series lineup forย June 16ย in Carson City, Nevada at the 3rd Annual Carson City Off-Road mountain bike event. Headlining the free concerts in the heart of downtown Carson City is theย internationally-acclaimed, genre-breaking force in the world of entertainment, MarchFourth Marching Band.

MarchFourth Marching Band is a sonic explosion delivered by 20 musicians, dancers and artisans who travel the world, year-round, taking audience members of all ages, from all walks of life, on a joy-inducing, foot-stomping, booty-shaking, soul-stirring journey that defies categorization. With exceptional musical quality and a visual kaleidoscope of stilt walkers, hoopers and Vaudeville-style dancers, MarchFourth whips audiences into a celebratory frenzy with an over-the-top spectacle of high-energy compositions, colorful costumes, and irresistible charisma. They will be taking the stageย Saturday, June 16th at 8p.

Hailing from Californiaโ€™s Mojave Desert, Desert Rhythm Project is a neo-roots, reggae, funk, and soul band who will be opening up for MarchFourth Marching Band at 6p on Saturday, June 16th.ย Born in the magical Mojave, Desert Rhythm Projectโ€™s combines powerful harmonies, smooth elemental bass rhythms and methodic guitar techniques.

Starting the day off at 3p on the McFadden Stage is The Lique, a funky hip-hop/jazz band from Las Vegas. At 4:30p, a live TrainerRoad Podcast Panel will be taking place on the Main Stage. TrainerRoad, hosted by Chad Timmerman, Jonathan Lee, and Nate Pearson, is a podcast dedicated to answering cycling and triathlon questions.

With proceeds from beer sales benefiting the Carson City Boys & Girls Club, the Four Peaks Brewing Company Beer Garden will open near the finish lineย on Saturdayย atย 10am.ย Due to Nevadaโ€™s lax consumption laws, there are no boundaries to the beer service making for the perfect post-ride mood to stroll the expo area, listen to music and cheer for friends and family while enjoying an oat soda while glorious music fills the air into the evening.

โ€œWeโ€™re extremely excited to once again join forces with the Carson City Off-Roadย and Visit Carson City,โ€ says Andy Ingram, co-founder of Four Peaks Brewing Company. โ€œThis weekend wouldnโ€™t be what it is without great music and great beer, and we canโ€™t wait to share both with everyone who comes out to the concert.โ€
