The party kicks off in Pennsylvania in the summer before making stops in Toronto, Dallas, Minnesota and Hartford among other places.

Willie Nelson & Family

Singer, songwriter, port, actor and activist Willie Nelson is the driving force behind the Outlaw Music Festival. The legendary performer, who was one of the pioneers of the “outlaw country” subgenre back in the 1960s, has more than a dozen Grammy Awards to his name among a host of other honors.

Rolling Stone has named the great man on its list of 100 Greatest Singers of All Time as well as 100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time. With an astonishing number of hit singles and more than 60 studio albums among lots of other work, there is hardly anything Nelson has not done in his career.

Apart from his bag of Grammys, the iconic entertainer has landed multiple American Music Awards, Country Music Association Awards, Academy of Country Music Awards and many others in a highly decorated and storied career that spans more than half a century. Nelson is also an inductee of the Country Music Hall of Fame and the National Agricultural Hall of Fame, the latter induction was in recognition of his work as an activist for farmers’ rights.

The Avett Brothers

The Avett Brothers are known for their combination of country, pop, rock & roll, bluegrass, punk, folk, indie rock, ragtime and honky tonk melodies. What you get as a result is a unique sound that the San Francisco Chronicle has described as possessing “the uncontained liveliness of the Ramones, the melodious jingle of the Beatles, the graceful pop shades of Buddy Holly, and the dense melancholy of Townes Van Zandt.”

The celebrated folk rock band from Concord has more than half a dozen albums and many hit singles to its credit. Apart from their Grammy nominations, the Avett Brothers are multiple winners of the Americana Music Honors & Awards. A number of their albums have reached number 1 on the Billboard Folk Albums chart. You can catch them in action by getting Outlaw Music Festival 2019 tickets.

Phil Lesh & Friends

Phil Lesh & Friends are somewhat of an anomaly when it comes to traditional music bands. The rock group from San Francisco, led by founder Phil Lesh, has had a number of different musicians playing under its umbrella down the years. These include members of fellow rock bands The Black Crowes, Phish and the Allman Brothers Band among others.

Phil Lesh & Friends have released a number of albums to date, with the first one Love Will See You Through coming out in 1999. It was recorded live and has a sound heavily influenced by the work of Grateful Dead, a rock band co-founded by Lesh himself. Other albums include 2002’s There and Back Again and Live at the Warfield, which came out in 2006.

Alison Krauss

It wouldn’t be wrong to call Alison Krauss the queen of Grammy Awards. With more than two dozen wins from over 40 nominations, Krauss is behind only Georg Solti and Quincy Jones in terms of most Grammy wins. She holds the distinction of being the most-awarded singer as well as the most-awarded female artist in the history of the Grammy Awards.

The country and bluegrass singer from Decatur has released more than a dozen albums, both as a solo artist and with her band “Alison Krauss and Union Station.” Krauss has also released a few compilation albums and more than 30 singles. Her most successful album to date is Live, a live album released with her band which was certified double Platinum by the RIAA.

Other Acts

Apart from the above-mentioned star performers, other talented acts that will be taking the stage during the festival include The Revivalists, Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats, Old Crow Medicine Show, Dawes, Lukas Nelson & Promise of the Real, Steve Earl & The Dukes, Hayes Carl and Casey Donahew.
