OCEAN CITY – Jellyfish Festival will return to downtown Ocean City over Labor Day weekend with an all-new music lineup, a craft beer experience and sports and fitness components for everyone to enjoy.
“The music and atmosphere we’re going to provide is exactly what we need to celebrate the end of summer and getting back to normal,” said Brad Hoffman, the founder and director of Jellyfish Festival. “I’m excited our team will be bringing such a fun event to the Ocean City community and its visitors. All our artists are here to put on one great show for the public.”
Hoffman and his production company, Live Wire Media & Events, announced this week the headlining musicians for Jellyfish 2021 — blues musician Anthony Gomes, acclaimed folk rock performers Derek Woods Band, and a solo show by reggae rocker Ted Bowne of Passafire. Other performers include Ray Wroten, Rockoholics, Troll Tribe, Skribe, Crosstown Walkers and Never Ending Fall. New acts will be added in the weeks to come.
Gomes is one of the top draws on the Rock and Blues circuit today. A triple threat force as a guitarist, vocalist and songwriter, Gomes’ latest record, Containment Blues, debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Blues chart. The Toronto native is known for high-energy shows and a dynamic stage presence. He has performed alongside modern blues legends including B.B. King, Buddy Guy, and Kenny Wayne Shepherd.
Jellyfish will be teaming up with Shore Craft Beer to bring the first-ever craft beer tasting event to the beach. Craft beer from your favorite local and regional breweries will be served on the festival grounds from noon-4 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 4.
lmao, headliners? guess that’s what one expects from such a family friendly ghetto! more like no name hacks just like the res of the tourons down there!
NO FIREWORKS, a family affair but this trash is being put on. Proves not a family town.
2 words that haunt Rickie. DEW TOUR.
Such and easy cash cow as well as national TV exposure. All ended over a lil bit of money. Money, like the $100k wasted for last years Air Show. Money, like the $30k for this past new years eve fireworks. The WALL going half way down coastal highway. Certain downtown revitalization projects.
Jellyfish show? Hahahahahaahaha. If you force it, they will NOT come.
You force enforcement rather than compromise – H2Oi “fans” continue to come!
Sad you can see this. Guess we will find out again at the end of Sept.
