FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

THE 20TH ANNUAL HAIR O’ THE DOG ROARS INTO 2014

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 7, 2014 – Hair O’ The Dog, Philadelphia’s Swankiest Black Tie Affair presented by Parx Casino, will commemorate 20 years on Saturday, January 18 with its biggest and boldest celebration to date. This highly anticipated event will take place at the newly refashioned Sheraton Philadelphia Downtown Hotel. Get lucky in no time with an ultra exclusive VIP Press Preview beginning at 8 p.m. featuring top shelf libations along with gourmet butlered and stationed hors d’oeuvres.

“Let the Good Times Roar” and get ready for a “Gatsby-Inspired” evening filled with flappers, zoot suits, whiskey and gin along with extravagant décor and top-notch entertainment. Dance until you drop with a very special DJ set and live performance by Havana Brown. Havana, best known for her smash hit “We Run the Night”, featuring Pitbull, will take the event to a whole new level this year as Hair O’ the Dog sets an all-new precedent for the gala with its first ever performance by a certified triple-platinum artist.

Partygoers will wag their tails off with sounds by Philly Hot List “Best DJ”, Perry Angelozzi, and Hair O’ the Dog founder and DJ, Dan Cronin. As the evening roars on, additional electrifying performances include the band The Business, Bryen Boyle of Mr. Greengenes and Philly’s own Jade Starling, who will perform her new single “Insomniak.” In addition, James Lynch of the Drop Kick Murphys will be in attendance to kick start the night.

Hair O’ The Dog always helps a deserving charity, and this year is no exception. A portion of the proceeds from this year’s gala will benefit the Claddagh Fund, founded by Ken Casey of the Dropkick Murphys. The Claddagh Fund uses a grassroots approach to help raise money for underfunded nonprofits across the country that assist vulnerable, disenfranchised children, veterans and those recovering from addictions.

For those who want to ‘party til the bark of dawn’, the official Hair O’ The Dog After Party will kick off at G Lounge, Philadelphia’s sophisticated nightlife destination. Admission and transportation to the after party is complimentary to all ticket holders; however, space is limited on a first come first served basis.
