The good folk at Jack Daniel’s are offering up the chance to fly to the JD distillery in Lynchburg, Tennessee and take part in the ultimate birthday celebration (17th -19th October). DiS will be giving away one pair of tickets each week for the next three weeks.
Just 200 people will be lucky enough to attend the Birthday JD Set and experience a night of unforgettable and unique collaborations which will make it a once in a lifetime rock and roll experience. The gig takes place on BBQ Hill overlooking the Jack Daniel Distillery where every drop is made.
The lucky competition winners will be raising a toast to Mr. Jack's 158th birthday in the company of this year’s line up - Roisin Murphy, Tim Wheeler (Ash), House Of Lords (Young Knives) and Hugh Cornwell (The Stranglers) former frontman. Each artist will be backed by the New Silver Cornet Band who were formed in memory of the original Silver Cornet Band formed by Mr. Jack, thus starting JD’s long standing love and support of music.
