Today, the torch-bearing Grateful Dead tribute act Dark Star Orchestra announces the lineup for their ninth annual Dark Star Jubilee music festival.

After kicking off the holiday season with a performance during last week’s Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, acclaimed singer, songwriter and performer Tenille Townes releases Songs For Christmas—available now via Columbia Nashville (stream/purchase HERE).

Jonathan Wilson announces the March 6th release of his new album Dixie Blur (BMG/Bella Union). The critically-acclaimed artist, multi-instrumentalist and producer (Father John Misty, Laura Marling, Dawes) spent most of 2017-18 on Roger Waters’ epic US+THEM tour as musical director, guitarist and vocalist, singing the David Gilmour leads.

The Earl Scruggs Music Festival is proud to announce new additions to the festival lineup for the upcoming 2020 festival: The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, Jim Lauderdale, Chatham County Line, and the Earls of Leicester.

Noise Pop Festival is excited to unveil the third wave of artists being added to the 2020 lineup for the annual indie music and arts festival returning to San Francisco's Bay Area February 24 – March 1. Tickets to newly announced shows will be available for purchase at www.noisepopfest.com beginning this Friday, December 13 at 10:00 a.m. PT, although previously announced individual shows, as well as GA, Super Fan, Super Fam, and Student badges are currently on sale now. 

Almost 17 years ago, back in 2003, I played my first show with Melvin Seals in Albuquerque, NM and had an absolute blast.
