Topping this years bill includes Steve Winwood, Gov’t Mule and Michael Franti & Spearhead. Other notable acts include The Roots, The Word (featuring Robert Randolph, John Medeski & North Mississippi Allstars), Dawes and the recently reunited Ben Folds Five.
Discounted early-bird VIP, 3-Day, 4-Day, and Camping Festival Passes are on-sale now at MountainJam.com.

I remember back in the 90′s when music videos were in their heyday. It seemed that almost every band attempted to make a “cool” music video for their latest single and MTV would debut it. It was a big deal! Now, not so much. But it seems that music videos might be making a comeback.
Wilco seems like the most unlikely band to release a music video, but that’s exactly what they’ve done for “Dawned on Me.” Popeye, Olive Oyl, Swee’ Pea, Wimpy, and Bluto join Wilco for the first hand-drawn, frame-by-frame rendering for Popeye since 1987′s Popeye and Son.
Get yourself some Wilco brand spinach and check out the video.
