Summer Strummer Festival Lineup Revealed

For the second year in a row, Santa Monica, CA hosts the Summer Strummer Festival. The sophomore annual event takes place at Bergamot Station on Sunday, September 2 and features performances by Mat Kearney, Augustana and Jesse Malin among others.

Festival organizer Charlie Overbey released a press statement revealing how they were able to achieve a second year. "We set out to throw a little 'small town feel' music fair for a few hundred people that appreciate a great day in the sun as much as we do and just in the second year it has turned into a concert with 40+ bands, a skate expo, loads of amazing vendors, a beer garden, and we've even got pony rides and a petting zoo for the kids. We love what this event has become and really appreciate our fantastic sponsors as well as everyone that has been a part of making it happen. We look forward to hangin' out with hipsters of all ages at the festival this year."
