The Spirit of the Suwannee Music Park (SOSMP) in Live Oak, Florida, will host the 7th Annual Suwannee Spring Reunion from Thursday through Sunday, March 20–23. This family-friendly music festival spans four days and nights and includes camping, music workshops, children’s activities, arts & crafts, and daily yoga. Nestled amidst 800 acres of majestic Spanish moss-draped oak and cypress trees along the Suwannee River, the weekend will be jam-packed with music rooted in Americana, newgrass, bluegrass, folk, blues, and more.
Suwannee Spring Reunion is excited to announce new additions to the lineup including Jim Lauderdale & The Game Changers, Larry Keel’s Electric Larry Land, The Po’ Ramblin’ Boys, Jon Stickley Trio, Verlon Thompson, Paul McDonald & The Mourning Doves, Mosier Brothers Band, The Grass Is Dead, John Mailander (Artist at Large), Ain’t Sisters, Blair Crimmins & the Hookers, David Grier, Grateful Dawg Tribute with Billy Gilmore & Mickey Abraham, and more. This also includes a Suwannee debut performance by Yet To Be Gold, which features Gregor Sayet-Bone, Jeb Puryear (of Donna the Buffalo), Luca Greenspun, and Jonas Puryear.
These additions are in addition to the already announced stellar acts, which include The Infamous Stringdusters, Sam Bush, Donna the Buffalo, Kitchen Dwellers, Peter Rowan Walls of Time Band with Don Grant Reggaebilly, Steve Poltz, Fireside Collective, SCYTHIAN, Roy Book Binder, Hattie & Joe Craven Quartet, Big Cosmo’s Band, Lee Hunter & The Gatherers, and others. See the full lineup, including the new additions, below.
Suwannee Spring Reunion focuses on showcasing both established and up-and-coming roots musicians throughout the weekend, often featuring one-of-a-kind collaborations among the performers—you never know who will make a surprise appearance on stage (or in the campgrounds, for that matter). There’s an open invitation to join the many campground pickin’ party sites throughout the weekend, including Slopryland, hosted by Sloppy Joe, and the Bill Monroe Shrine, hosted by Quartermoon.
The lineup includes artists with storied histories of epic Suwannee performances over the years. The festival is home to generations of families who have gathered year after year to experience that shared connection to the music and to a sense of something bigger than themselves.
Suwannee Spring Reunion hosts multiple areas for music, including Big Cosmo’s Amphitheater, the NEW Music Farmers Stage at The Porch and The Back Porch, the Music Hall, and The Tent.
The Music Farmers Stage at The Back Porch is sponsored by the festival’s nonprofit arm, the Live Oak Music and Arts Foundation (LOMAF). A raffle with a variety of prizes donated by festival merchants, artists, and sponsors will be held on-site at a tent at the top of the hill near Big Cosmo’s Amphitheater. Proceeds will benefit LOMAF to support music and arts programs in North Florida schools, including the Suwannee Spirit Kids Music Camp.
