Sound Valley has announced the return of the Sound Valley Summer Music Festival to Dayton, Ohio, on August 28. The event, which takes place at Yellow Cab Tavern and begins at 4 pm EST offers performances from Jetty Bones (Rise Records), The Raging Nathans (Rad Girlfriend Records), All Hallowed (Friend Club Records), and 10 other artists. 

Tickets are $20 in advance with an opportunity to save even more when you purchase couples or group tickets! Discounted presale tickets can be purchased here.

“I think we’re all starving for connection and music is a powerful vehicle to bring people together” Zac Pitts, co-owner of Sound Valley said. “Live music came to a screeching halt when the pandemic started and I think the world realized just how much we took the experience for granted. Music just helps you feel better, especially when it’s live and in the moment”.

A portion of the event’s proceeds will benefit The Greater Dayton Brain Health Foundation. The organization helps provide counsel and financial support to ensure ready access to brain health services, delivery of effective brain health treatment and support services, and collaboration among systems impacting people with a brain illness.

The event also aims to bring the community together for a day-long celebration of people who make music in the local area. In addition to the previously mentioned performers, the event also includes sets from party rockers Nightbeast, powerhouse M.C. K. Carter, as well as Freakquency, Business Casuals, Nasty Bingo, The Luv Loss Experiment, Speaking Suns, Bundy & The Spins, Jeremy Street, and Gabe Maas & The Bruins.

“This event is meant to connect those who want to continue taking Dayton’s music scene to the next level,” Pitts said. “There will be two stages (both outdoor) vendors and food trucks throughout the day to keep hungry fans happy!”
