We've got Merle Haggard:
... and Burning Spear:
... and Arrested Development:
... and Rusted Root:
... and Oliver Mtukudzi:
... and Railroad Earth:
...and about 4 dozen others. A-list all the way this year, folks! Are we gonna see you there?

awesome line up
I cannot wait!!! Woo hoo!
Can't wait til July!
I will miss the Mutron Warriors this year - they played twice last year and I'm hooked. I was surprised they weren't on the line up.
Very glad Ayurveda is coming back again!
Great line up as usual, but sadly the absence of the horseflies is a big hole for me, pysched to see Mountain Heart again, they were our best new find last year! July can't come soon enuf...
Sad not to see Scythian, the Dukhs, Horseflies... Thought maybe we would see the Avett Brothers on the list for the big 20th Anniversary... oh well I'm sure is will still be a good festival...
no sharon jones? she was the best last year
no horseflies? and i agree sharon jones was the top show in my book last year.... but the lineup still rocks!!
Also sad no horseflies and Sharon Jones. Excited anyway!
I just cant wait to see Merle Haggard!
why aren't any of the good up-and-coming local bands booked?
whats up with no jim lauderdale? his absence is very unusual!
Jim Lauderdale will be in Europe in July touring with Elvis Costello & the Sugarcanes
With Keith Frank recently announcing his pending retirement from performing music, this may be the last year to enjoy his late night dance parties under the big top. So get your fill til the break of dawn.

keith frank retirement!!!!???? wow what a loss, what will replace that band at roots?! i think they need to up the headline acts next year
The Horseflies played here for the past 20 years. I think they deserve to get one year off.
I so wish I could be there... sadly I'm stuck on the other side of the world :-( Will have to try for next year...
I remember seeing Rusted Root at Grassroots what seems like a million years ago (I guess it was 1992 - the glorious mud!) Lovely to see Sim Redmon's face on the homepage... I went to school with him and Sujata Sidhu, they rock! And Kevin Kinsella and John Brown's Body... oh I so want to be there!!
Nice Post! I really like to join every party and party band is always attracts me lot.
Great Post! I am working on Cyprus and I am always ready for listen about different band.
