ARTS, BEATS & EATS Headline Artists Announced

STONE TEMPLE PILOTS, NEON TREES, JUSTIN MOORE & BOBBY BROWN TO HEADLINE ARTS, BEATS & EATS

Southeast Michigan’s premier Labor Day festival, the 24^th annual Soaring Eagle Arts, Beats & Eats presented by Flagstar Bank, is back, Sept. 3-6, to fill downtown Royal Oak with some Grammy Award winning music. Featuring more than 200 performances on nine stages, the festival promises a wide variety of musical genres and family-friendly entertainment.

“Since we were unable to hold the festival last year due to the pandemic, we wanted to rise to the occasion this year, and our team has stepped up to deliver a big-time event,” said Jon Witz, Soaring Eagle Arts, Beats & Eats festival producer. “This Labor Day Weekend, festivalgoers get to feast their ears to plenty of popular acts, including The Guess Who, The Gin Blossoms and one of the biggest bands to be booked since the festival’s conception, Stone Temple Pilots.”

With nearly 20 new musical acts added to the nearly 200 returning favorites, the Beats at this year’s festival are unparalleled. Featuring all genres of music across nine different stages, the bands play on for four days and nights of local and national entertainment. The Michigan Lottery National Stage will feature all-star performances by one of the most commercially successful bands of the 1990s, Grammy Award winning Stone Temple Pilots (“Interstate Love Song,” “Plush”). Also performing on the National Stage is The Guess Who (“No Sugar Tonight/New Mother Nature”), Bobby Brown (“My Perogative”), The Gin Blossoms (“Hey Jealousy”), Neon Trees (“Everybody Talks”), Justin Moore (“Why We Drink”), Mac Watts (“Wise Man”), American rock band Starship (“We Built This City”), a tribute band that transports it audience through five decades of music Your Generation In Concert, the ultimate Beatles tribute band BeatleMania Live!, The Voice finalist of 2016, Laith Al-Saadi and Detroit R & B sensation, Thornetta Davis.

Metro Detroit’s most talented and widely-recognized local bands will be showcased on eight additional music stages offering a variety of different genres. The local stages include: House of Dank Performance Pit Area; Shorts/Old Nation Alternative Stage; Soaring Eagle Casino & Resort Rock Stage; Makers Mark R&B Stage; Flagstar Bank International Stage; Detroit News Country Stage; Oakland Community College Cultural/Acoustic Stage; and the Detroit Institute of Arts Kids Stage.

NEWCOMERS AND A LOCAL PAY RAISE

On the local side of the festival, all locally based bands will receive a 10% increase in pay from 2019, and there are nearly 20 first-timers performing at Arts, Beats & Eats this year. Joining the top-tier lineup is Cullen Emadrey, an R&B and soul artist with touches of pop and electronic, who often cites Aaliyah as his biggest influence. Joining him on the R&B stage is The Further Adventures of FatBoy and JiveTurkey, the brain child of Benjamin Hall, a Central Michigan-based musician. The rock stage will add Frame 42, a Lapeer-based band that’s under the direction of four-time Grammy nominee Deb Barber. Another newcomer to the rock stage is Mac Saturn, a soul powered rock-and-roll band born from a gastric mass in the outer reaches of a forgotten renaissance.

For country music fans, the festival welcomes new local artists. Featuring a Detroit-based singer who brings an Americana touch with his banjo, Christian Ohly, and a band who draws from many locations in the United States to bring together a combination of very gifted musicians, BIG Riggs Band. The acoustic stage will be graced by Dan Millard, a singer born in Liverpool and influenced by bands from the British Invasion and Motown, a young and upcoming acoustic singer and guitarist from India, Abhay, and another young singer-songwriter born in Michigan and who was a lead singer of the Ground Zero Band, Delaney Natke.

Fans of the alternative genre will be happy to see a wide selection of new talent, including CARA, who focuses her performance on original songs, along with a great mix of covers from a wide range of musical genres like blue-eyed soul, pop, and foreign language songs; Ben Daniels Band, who cuts through with their originality, musicianship, and a sound that spans Americana, blues, jazz, and rock; The Hacky Turtles, a Grand Rapids band who harbors an electric recipe of alternative funk/rock with a decent dollup of dirty folk; and 75 Days of Sun, a high-energy original ska/punk band from Detroit with a rapidly-growing reputation for leaving crowds danced-out and begging for more.

Soaring Eagle Arts, Beats & Eats also offers a range of cultural performances. The international stage will feature Half Way There, a five-piece collective band with a laid back one drop reggae style; Renaissance Festival Presents: Pictus, which thrills audiences all over the country with its unique take on primal drums and bagpipes; and Martin Chaparro MC3, a singer-songwriter originally from Argentina and who incorporates many styles in his music.

DON’T FORGET THE ZUMBATHON

Zumba fans can once again celebrate by dancing and sweating on Saturday, Sept. 4, during the Priority Health Zumbathon Celebration. The long-running, favorite festival activity returns, transforming the Michigan Lottery Stage from 10 a.m.-11:30 a.m. into a red-hot, exhilarating dance fitness explosion. Tickets for the Zumbathon are $8 and include free parking from 8 a.m.-noon, free admission for the participant and a guest to the festival, and a free bottle of water.

The 2021 Priority Health Zumbathon benefits HAVEN. As Oakland County’s only comprehensive program for victims of domestic violence and sexual assault, HAVEN provides shelter, counseling, advocacy and educational programming to nearly 30,000 people each year. Last year 1,600 people participated in a sold out Zumba Fitness party at the festival. In conjunction with Vibe Fit Studio, a metro Detroit fitness studio, the class will feature more than 150 other local Zumba instructors from across Michigan.

While the festival was canceled in 2020 due to the pandemic, virtual and small-scale live activations took its place to spread a little bit of art, music, food and health, including a major initiative to support the local music industry called “The Beats Go On…” that raised more than $431K for local musicians.

The 24^th annual Soaring Eagle Arts, Beats & Eats presented by Flagstar Bank is Oakland County’s premier festival to be held Sept. 3-6, 2021. The festival celebrates the quality of life in Oakland County by offering a culturally unique presentation that paints the city of Royal Oak’s downtown with a variety of art, food and music for the community to enjoy. “LIKE” artsbeatseats on Facebook or follow us on Twitter and Instagram @artsbeatseats.
