    The 3rd and final line-up of bands will be announced on January 9th. “Today, fans are asking more than just quality music, they’re looking for an overall experience and we provide that. Jeff and I collectively attend about 10-15 festivals per year to get a clear idea of what works and what doesn’t. We talk to the fans, we talk to the promoters and there is quite the camaraderie between most of us. We aren’t just shooting in the dark,” says festival co-founder Dan Sheehan.

    It doesn’t look as though Dan & the rest of the Cali-Roots fam are shooting in the dark with these festivals as the first round of tickets released sold out in just 8 hours. The second round sold out in 24 hours & the festival promoters are expecting this entire festival to sell out before 2013 ends.
