John “Feldy” Feldmann of Goldfinger, co-producer of Back To The Beach, explains, “The inception of the idea of a ska festival turned into reality from one festival (Punk In Drublic) to another! I grew up on ska, so this has been my dream! Now I get to do it with one of my best friends, Travis Barker (The Aquabats). 2 OG rude boys getting back to our roots!”
“With such an incredible ska-influenced lineup, this is the dream show for every Southern California music fan from 1995 to today. Travis Barker and John Feldmann put in a lot of hard work with me to get this right and we think we accomplished our goal. We have to thank California State Parks for letting us do this at the most unbelievable venue on the sand at the most popular beach on Earth…Huntington State Beach. So many attractions, great food and drink… A CAN’T MISS WEEKEND,” states John Reese, Back To The Beach Producer and President of SGE, Inc.
Reese continues, “We wanted to create a festival for the entire family. The Lil’ Punk Kid Zone will offer everything from bounce houses and carnival games of chance to a sandcastle demolition…it’s going to be a really fun day at the beach for all ages.”
Back To The Beach will feature a carnival midway, beach games, the Lil’ Punk Kid Zone, vegan food, craft beer and cocktails, and more.
