The Pig & Whiskey lineup just keeps getting better. We’ve already announced SmashMouth and Story of the Year, and now we’re excited to release the news that hard rock band Drowning Pool will be performing at the free event on May 11.
Drowning Pool continues to deliver heavy, hard-hitting rock with Hellelujah (2016), their most aggressive album since Sinner. Packed with fiery anthems like “By the Blood,” “We Are the Devil” and “Push,” the album blends brutal grooves with melodic power. Jasen Moreno’s commanding vocals, paired with C.J. Pierce’s crushing guitar work, fuel the band’s signature sound. With a legacy spanning platinum records, legendary tours, and a deep connection to fans, Drowning Pool remains a defiant force in modern rock. Hellelujah is a bold statement of resilience, passion and sonic intensity, proving the band is stronger than ever.
The Pig & Whiskey festival – presented by Sauce Magazine and 4 Hands Brewing Co. – takes place from May 9-11 at 4 Hands’ downtown location at 1220 S. Eighth St. Expect plenty of barbecue, live music, refreshing beverages, diverse vendors and activities suitable for all ages.
While general admission is free, VIP attendees will enjoy perks such as an open bar, complimentary appetizers throughout the festival, unobstructed stage views, and opportunities to meet the performers. Purchase VIP tickets online.
