Since its inception five years ago, UTBS has emerged as one of the premier festivals in the country when it comes to genuine Americana and country music.
With more than 60,000 in attendance throughout the weekend, the gathering has become a pilgrimage fest for music fans… UTBS blends juggernaut musical acts and real deal, nitty gritty Western appeal — live rodeos between sets, homemade barbecue, and late-night foot-stomping at local dive bars."

We get asked quite often,
“What’s the cost and what do we get?”
We like to take a step back and start by asking you,
“If you could do anything, what would you like to do? What do you want to ultimately get out of the partnership?”
