The Hardly Strictly Bluegrass lineup including stages has been announced.

On Friday I really like the Banjo Stage lineup with David Bromberg, Dry Branch Fire Squad, Dave Alvin, Jimmie Dale Gilmore & The Guilty Ones, Mavis Staples and Alison Kraus.. The Rooster Stage featuring Patty Griffin & Trampled By Turtles, Swan Stage featuring The Greyboy Allstars and The Tower’s Of Gold Stage featuring Live from Here With Chris Thile are all a great beginning day of my favorite music festival..

On Saturday I could be at anyone of the six stages and be happy. Most likely I will be set up at the Tower Of Gold Stage for a lineup that includes Glorietta, I’m With Her, Gomez, Los Lobos and Ani DiFranco. My wife plans on setting up at the Swan Stage as well to see Graham Nash. Both the Porch and Rooster Stages have a great lineup of acts with The Porch stage featuring The Hip Spanic Allstars, Sammy Brue, Steve Forbert, Kacy & Clayton, Ellen Jewell, Evolfo and The Family Crest. The Rooster Stage features there likes of Tracy Nelson, Molly Tuttle, The war and treaty, Buddy Miller and his Calvalcade of Stars and Jeff Tweedy.

Sunday I plan on staying at The Tower of Gold Stage with a lineup that includes Jon Langford, Justin Townes Earle, Robert finely, JD McPherson and Ween. This should be one rocking afternoon of music…I really like the last three acts at the Porch Stage with Robyn Hitchcock, Howling Rain and Dale Watson. The Rooster Stage closes with the legendary Roky Erickson.
