Peavey Electronics Sponsors Jack Daniel's World Championship Invitational Barbecue

Music and audio innovators Peavey Electronics recently sponsored the 26th annual Jack Daniel's World Championship Invitational Barbecue. Barbecue teams, judges and 25,000 fans from around the world gathered on Saturday, October 25, 2014 in Lynchburg, TN to celebrate barbecue culture, music and more.
After heated competition between some of the worlds most renowned barbecue chefs, Des Moines, Iowas Smokey Ds Barbecue emerged as Grand Champions. In addition to taking home top honors, Smokey Ds also received $10,000 and a Peavey JD-AG3 Jack Daniel's acoustic guitar autographed by Peavey Electronics Founder and CEO Hartley Peavey, Jack Daniels 7th Master Distiller Jeff Arnett, and performing artists Keith Anderson and Kyle Jacobs.
Winning the guitar was crazy, shared Smokey Ds BBQ owner, Darren Warth. Weve never received a trophy like that before. Ive had it in my hands every day since we won it! Warth entered the world of competition barbecue with his wife Sherry as a hobby in 2003. After initial success, the two launched Smokey Ds BBQ in 2006 as a trailer in their driveway. Today they operate three restaurants in Des Moines and have won over 60 state championships and over 700 category awards.

It was great having Peavey participate this year at the 26th annual Jack Daniels World Championship Invitational Barbecue, said Debbie Christian, Jack Daniels Event Organizer. Our founder, Mr. Jack, knew that great food and great music just go together, so it was a natural fit to have our long-time friends at Peavey join us for a fantastic weekend in the Jack Daniels Hollow.
Musical guests for the event included country music stars Keith Anderson, Kyle Jacobs and Kacey Smith. Centered around the high fidelity Peavey Versarray line array, all stage audio was provided by Peavey Electronics in partnership with KKs Music of Tullahoma and Manchester, TN.
