ION Indie Magazine Joins LaconiaFest as Event's Official Media Partner!

ATLANTA - May 27, 2016 - PRLog -- When you think of some of the most sought-after bands in rock music today, many names would come to mind. No doubt, that list would include bands such as Buckcherry and Sevendust. And when recalling individual artists who have left their mark in the arena of rock-certainly Ted Nugent and Bret Michaels would also be contenders. And arguably, that list of notables would not be complete without a man who--the mere mention of his name--conjures up the notion of PURE unadulterated rock and roll. Of course, we are talking about the frenetic front man and voracious vocalist of Aerosmith, Steven Tyler.

Now any one of those iconic bands or artists on any roster are a surefire, hands-down, pedal-to-the-medal, slap-your-mama good time. Now, imagine bringing ALL of that talent together in the same place? And add to the mix a whole lot of bikes, babes and beer-and you have the makings of an event that promises to both rock hard and ROLL hard. Beginning on June 11^th, the motorcycle music fest, LaconiaFest, will be roaring into town--the biggest, bodaciously-badass festival to ever infiltrate New Hampshire!

And it's only fitting that Tyler would be a focal point of the festivities-he is a beloved staple in New Hampshire and has a longtime connection to the area. In addition to spending his childhood summers in Lake Sunapee, it is also where he met the members of the Joe Perry Jam Band--which later evolved into Aerosmith. And with his well-publicized passion for the open road, LaconiaFest is a natural fit for Tyler-for he is the cofounder and partner of the motorcycle brand of custom bikes, Dirico Motorcycles; launching the bike biz In September 2007.

Enter ION Indie Magazine-the fastest growing independent music magazine today. ION is pleased to announce that they will be joining forces with LaconiaFest as Official Media Partner, and will be bringing to its readers in depth coverage of--not all legends such as Steven Tyler, Ted Nugent, Bret Michaels--but all of the prestigious musical guests that are set to sizzle the stages of LaconiaFest. But the magazine is quick to point out that the magazine is equally excited to explore the many talented up-and-coming independent artists that are appearing on the LaconiaFest stages, for they are the heartbeat of the publication.

According to Kiki Plesha, CEO and Editor-in-Chief, "Festivals such as LaconiaFest are to be applauded-not only for bringing exceptional entertainment to music fans by presenting such iconic artists like Steven Tyler, but for also providing the opportunity for so many of the 'unsung musical heroes'-the independent artists and bands-to have their moments in the sun. I am confident that LaconiaFest will prove to be a great source for discovering some of the best and brightest indie talent for our future editions of ION Indie Magazine."

ION Indie Magazine will hit the ground running-from the first note on June 11^th, to the final bow on June 19^th. Senior Photojournalists for the publication, Mark Myers and Dan Johnson, will be on hand reporting on the event-whose lineup includes many ION alumni: Lita Ford, Leaving Eden, Cross The Divide, Saving Abel, Adelitas Way, Another Lost Year, and of course, Buckcherry.

Weirs Beach Drive-in, Laconia, New Hampshire, will be serving as the stomping ground for the much-anticipated first-year festival--which besides the impressive headliners, boasts over 100 of the hottest area bands completing the lineup. Coverage of LaconiaFest will be spotlighted in an upcoming edition of ION Indie Magazine.
