New York, NY (Top40 Charts/
Music Allies) - Genre-crossing hip-hop band The
Roots join the 2010 Hangout Beach
Music and Arts Festival lineup. The Roots, the house band for Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, are often hailed as one of the best live bands in hip-hop. When the festival learned that The
Flaming Lips had cancelled a string of shows due to the hospitalization of guitarist Steven Drozd, The
Roots stepped in to co-headline Alabama's three-day beach party.
And for festival attendees who aren't ready to call it a night after a full day of music, a late night show featuring Alex B, Gift of Gab (Blackalicious), and Big Gigantic has been added for Friday, May 14. Festival revelers looking to keep the party going will move from the white sands of Gulf Shores and into The Hangout Restaurant. Tickets are $20 in advance/ $25 day of show, and are available through the festival website.
In March, the festival announced national headliners and Grammy winners Zac Brown Band and John Legend, plus Trey Anastasio & TAB, Ben Harper and Relentless7, The Black Crowes, Alison Krauss and Union Station feat. Jerry Douglas, Gov't Mule and Ray LaMontagne. For a complete artist listing, see below.
