Firefly Sweet Tea Flavored Vodka Announces Partnership with JB and the Moonshine Band
Firefly Sweet Tea Flavored Vodka is proudly partnering with Average Joes Entertainment’s JB and the Moonshine Band for the 2012 “Declaration of Independence” Tour. JB will be driving the famed Firefly RV across 17 states and opening for C**t Ford starting in April.
Firefly co-founder Scott Newitt and JB recently hooked up at the JB and the Moonshine Band CD release party held at Midnight Rodeo in Austin, TX. The band’s latest CD, Beer for Breakfast, which reached the No. 7 spot on Billboard Heatseekers Album Chart, is already leading digital downloads on several major sites and gaining national attention from music insiders. JB comments, “I am looking forward to hitting the pavement driving in style on the Firefly RV. Looks like we’ll have to start having some ‘tea’ parties on the tour. I’m excited for this partnership and so thankful to Scott and the whole team at Firefly.”
Scott Newitt also comments, “We had a great time with JB and the Moonshine Band. Their music and personality are a perfect fit for our genuine, original Firefly Sweet Tea Flavored Vodka. We are excited to be a part of the upcoming tour and we can’t wait to see them pull up to our favorite h***y tonks in our RV!” The Firefly RV is driven by several touring bands as part of a reciprocal promotional program. Firefly provides the RV, the bands provide the live music. It’s a win-win for both ‘par-teas!’
In addition to C**t Ford’s 2012 “Declaration of Independence” tour schedule, JB and the Moonshine Band is scheduled for over 15 club dates showcasing the band and promoting Firefly. You will be able to follow the tour via social media. You can also post your pictures, recipes and comments on our web and social media sites and look for “insider info” on:

The band has sold over 60,000 digital downloads and has had over three Top 20 songs to date (TEXAS Country Radio Charts).
