CHDN | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- Churchill Downs (CDI) and its new subsidiary, Churchill Downs Entertainment Group, (CDE), unveiled a three-day summer music festival that will showcase more than 65 bands, including the Grammy Award-winning Bon Jovi, country music star Kenny Chesney, and Grammy Award-winning Dave Matthews Band, at the home of the Kentucky Derby on July 23-25, 2010.

Designed to be an annual event, the "HullabaLOU Music Festival" will feature a wide range of artists that blend the sounds of classic rock, country, adult contemporary and bluegrass on five stages throughout the sprawling 147-acre facility.

"CDE plans to introduce a variety of live entertainment concepts that provide exciting and innovative entertainment options for our customers and that fit with our management team's core competencies, including the operation and monetization of large-scale, live events," CDE President Steve Sexton said. "Our first major project is the HullabaLOU Music Festival, which will be a great springboard for CDE-branded entertainment. With Bon Jovi, Kenny Chesney, and Dave Matthews Band as headliners, we have an extraordinary lineup of musical artists who will be performing against the backdrop of the iconic Twin Spires at Churchill Downs. We believe that fantastic combination will offer a one-of-a-kind experience for music fans, and we anticipate that the HullabaLOU Music Festival will become the premier music festival in this region, and an important summer destination for music lovers for years to come."

Other musical acts scheduled to appear include Zac Brown Band, Steve Miller Band, Gladys Knight, Jason Aldean, The Doobie Brothers, Al Green, Dwight Yoakam, Michael McDonald, Loretta Lynn, Colbie Caillat, Steppenwolf, The Black Crowes, Kansas, B52s, Gloriana, 38 Special, The O'Jays, War, Richard Marx, Gov't Mule, Joan Osborne, Musiq Soulchild, Taj Mahal, Sam Bush, Chrisette Michele and many more.

"The performers scheduled to appear at HullabaLOU will instantly put the event on the map of major music festivals in the country, and be one of the top festival entertainment options in 2010," said Quint Davis, Producer/Director of the Jazz Fest in New Orleans and consulting producer of HullabaLOU.
