So the event will supposedly start on Thursday the 13th, featuring additional performances by Perpetual Groove and The Motet. Other headliners include JJ Grey and Mofro, Ivan Neville's Dumpstaphunk, Yonder Mountain String Band, Soulive, The New Mastersounds, Lettuce, The Everyone Orchestra featuring Jon Fishman and Michael Kang, Dirty Dozen Brass Band, Dr. Claw (another Ivan Neville outfit), and many more.

The now 4-day event will be held once again at the Spirit of the Suwannee in Live Oak, FL. The park offers camping sites and cabins. Attractions like canoe trips, disc golf, fishing, hiking, horseback riding, plus many activities for the kids will be offered. In addition to the music, the festival features a variety of visual artists and craft vendors such as Raymun Jarvis, Carrie Curtis, Odendo, and Morgan Steele, among others. This art will be for sale to attendees.
