The folks at Dominion Riverrock have released the lineup for their 2016 festival down on Brown’s Island the third weekend in May. Headliners include G. Love and Special Sauce and Keller Williams’ Grateful Grass.
More details via Riverrock:
Fresh off the release of their 10th studio album ‘Love Saves The Day’ in late 2015, G. Love and Special Sauce bring their blend of hip-hop, blues, and rock that they first pioneered in the early 1990s to Dominion Riverrock. The group is now diving even deeper into this blend; their heavy grooves and raw music make their performances authentic, and their unruly spirit flows through everything the band does, in the studio and on stage. The band believes they are now stronger than ever and are riding a creative high going into their current tour.
Keller Williams is one of the best-known names in bluegrass music, and his latest project, Keller Williams’ Grateful Grass, offers loose interpretations of Grateful Dead songs done in a bluegrass style. It takes Williams’ fascination with Grateful Dead songs and mixes it together with his love of psychedelic improvisational bluegrass music. The result is a unique sound and stage experience delivering anything-but-traditional bluegrass versions of Grateful Dead favorites.
A number of local bands will fill out the lineup for the weekend of outdoor good times, including Big Mama Shakes, Jackass Flats, and local legends the DJ Williams Projekt.
