The 6th annual California Roots Music and Arts Festival that takes place at the historic Monterey County Fairgrounds from May 22-24, 2015, announced its third and final round of artists on December 5th. Now, following the revelation of all 39 artists on the line-up, California Roots has posted the highly anticipated daily break down for the weekend.
It’s not every day someone can go to a show and see so many of their favorite acts all play in one place, one after another. That’s one reason why music festivals are increasingly popular.
A mellow and intimate gathering with a dedicated fan-base, California Roots is quickly becoming known for the party they throw every Memorial Day weekend.
Set to be the premier gathering for the progressive US “Roots” movement, festival organizers never fail to put together a weekend of daily line-ups which together, surpass any show a fan of the genre could see another time of the year.
The 2014 edition of the event was a landmark year for the California Roots brand by breaking record attendance and expanding the festival into the legendary “Bowl Stage” to accommodate the growth.
In 2015 with SOJA, The Roots and Slightly Stoopid headlining the bills, Califorina Roots will surly once again pack ’em in!
For this year’s event the California Roots Festival includes 10 fan-favorites set to return as well as the appearance of 29 acts, some from across the globe, all never to have played the event.
With their full day-by-day line-up, the California Roots Festival will showcase the influence of the ever expanding stretch of sounds encompassed in this corner of music. Booking a variety of bands from around the world, playing everything from Reggae to Blues to Hip-Hop, this event has put together another stellar and diverse line-up, truly giving fans something to look forward to attending.
The only thing left now is for festival organizers to decide at what time exactly everyone will play. Last year the performance schedule was released on April 25th, so be sure to stay tuned for that announcement and any other California Roots updates.
