Estival Festival announced its 2026 lineup, featuring at least 25 regional artists performing across three stages Thursday, June 19 through Saturday, June 21 at Sugar Mountain in Caneadea. The festival, hosted by Cuppa Soup, takes place at 6373 East Hill Road in Allegany County.
Jacksonville, Florida-based Honey Hounds headlines the festival. The blues-rock quartet blends funky blues, soul and rock ‘n’ roll, described by the band as “funkadelic blues rock with a pinch of pop sensibility.” Formed in 2015, the group features Nick Izzard on vocals and guitar, Nathan Ranew on bass and vocals, Tyler Watts on drums and Max Zargon on keys.
Firewater Tent Revival, also from Atlantic Beach, Florida, brings psychedelic outlaw jamgrass to the Estival Festival lineup. Founded in 2010 by remnants of punk rock band The Hopeless, the six-piece group blends bluegrass, rock, outlaw country, funk and fusion. The band has played over a thousand shows across the Southeast United States since its formation.
Miller & the Other Sinners rounds out the top of the bill. Additional performers include PA Line, Public Water Supply, Arthur Buezo, L.S.T.N., Ric Robertson, Personal Blend, Judah, High Pines, Sutton String Band, New Planets, Tyler Westcott & Friends, Dirt Turtles, Adrianna Noone, Tin Lizard, Woodshed Prophets, Los Pajaritos, Family Soup, Delilah’s Flying Planet, The Endless Mountain Derelicts, Slyboots Circus and Sugar Mountain All Star Jam.
