Sting has swung to the rescue as Bourbon & Beyond’s replacement headliner after Neil Young pulled out of the festival due to illness.
Bourbon & Beyond 2024 goes down on September 19th-22nd at Highland Festival Grounds at Kentucky Exposition Center in Louisville, Kentucky. Sting, now taking Neil Young’s headlining slot on Friday, September 19th, will play as part of a trio he’s deemed “Sting 3.0”: Sting on bass, Dominic Miller on guitar, and Chris Maas on drums.
“While we will miss Neil Young at Bourbon this year, we’re excited to welcome a music legend, Sting, to the Bourbon & Beyond lineup,” said Danny Wimmer, Founder of Danny Wimmer Presents. “We’ve been trying to bring Sting to Bourbon for you since 2018 and it’s an incredible honor to have him join us for what will undoubtedly be our biggest and most unforgettable year ever.”
