For the second year in a row, Kentucky rockers My Morning Jacket are hosting a "blowout concert" titled One Big Holiday – aptly named after one of their most popular crowd-favorites – set in Mexico for early next year.
The group has just released some details on the event, including the list of performers and location, Rolling Stone reports.
The occasion is an all-inclusive party that offers meals, drinks, concerts and other happenings all included as part of the ticket price. The hosting band, MMJ, will also give out a download code for each of their three set performances.
A weekend dance party for the event's 2,500 concertgoers is in the works as well.
Joining Louisville's own will be the likes of the Preservation Hall Jazz Band, War on Drugs, Dr. Dog, Sylvan Esso, Biz Markie (as DJ) and Band of Horses –– who plan to play both electric and acoustic sets separately at the show.
My Morning Jacket frontman Jim James recently told RS, "Lawd have mercy! Good Mother Mexico showed us so much love last time – we of course had to make sure that One Big Holiday happens again (and again and again)!" James' excitement for the success of 2014's show proves incredibly evident as he goes on to praise the experience that allowed him to not only take in new friends and catch up with old ones, but also to just experience the adventure of performing in front of such enthusiastic crowds. "Can you imagine, being relaxed and exhilarated all at the same time? I sure bet you can! Good times await"
The event is scheduled to take place at the Hard Rock Hotel Riviera Maya between January 31 and February 4 of 2015. Tickets go on sale June 27 at noon; however, anyone who is a returning guest can get pre-sale tickets one day earlier.
