Lockn' Festival is excited to announce Phil Lesh & Friends featuring Carlos Santana. Lockn' is also announcing the full 2015 line-up and daily schedule. The four-day festival takes place September 10-13 on the beautiful Oak Ridge and Lockn' Farms in Arrington, Virginia.
Artist collaborations continue to be the highlight of Lockn', offering once-in-a-lifetime performances that may never be seen again. These sets are often planned and rehearsed, but because the Lockn' artists are such masters of their craft, many are spontaneous and artist initiated.

This year Robert Plant and the Sensational Space Shifters, Widespread Panic, The String Cheese Incident, Tedeschi Trucks Band, Gov't Mule, and Phil Lesh & Friends will make two unique appearances. Phil Lesh & Friends performs one show with special guest Carlos Santana, Warren Haynes, Barry Sless, Rob Barraco & John Molo, and then a second show with Chris Robinson, Neal Casal, Adam MacDougall, Eric Krasno and Tony Leone.
