Dominion Riverrock announced the bands performing at this year's event today. On Friday, 5/17, DJ Mordecai kicks things off at 6 PM and then you get your headliners Soulive (7:30) and Lettuce (9:30), two funky bands which should get everyone moving.
Saturday, bands start at 1:00 with The Trongone Band, 2:30 with The New Belgians, The Shack Band at 4:00, The Southern Belles at 5:30. The headliners begin at 7:00 with great New Orleans blues-rocker Anders Osborne and then reggae great Toots and the Maytals at 9:00. Mark your calendars and don't miss two nights of great, free music.
Check out Americana singer/songwriter Tift Merritt on Last Call with Carson Daly tonight at 1:35 AM on NBC. Tift recently joined singer Andrew Bird to do a couple songs for a Billboard Magazine Tastemakers @ Sunrise session. You can check out the whole thing HERE. Here's one song from the session, "Give It Away" (not the Red Hot Chili Peppers song of the same name!).
Supporting music in Richmond since 2000 - "Hello, my love, I heard a kiss from you / Red magic satin playing near, too / All through the morning rain I gaze, the sun doesn't shine / Rainbows and waterfalls run through my mind / In the garden, I see, west purple shower bells and tea / Orange birds and river cousins dressed in green / Pretty music, I hear, so happy and loud / Blue flowers echo from a cherry cloud" - The Brothers Johnson, “Strawberry Letter 23”
