Laid Back Festival has announced its lineup for 2020, featuring headliners Steve Miller Band and Brian Wilson with Al Jardine & Blondie Chaplin.
The pair of one-day festivals will take place on Saturday, August 8th, at Northwell Health at Jones Beach Theater in Wantagh, NY, and Sunday, August 9th at PNC Bank Arts Center in Holmdel, NJ. Both gatherings will feature performances from Marty Stuart and His Fabulous Superlatives, Taj Mahal Quartet, Gary Mule Deer, and Karl Denson’s Tiny Universe‘s special “Eat A Bunch Of Peaches” tribute set to The Allman Brothers Band.
Laid Back Festival, produced by Gregg Allman‘s longtime manager Michael Lehman and Live Nation, will also showcase food and drink from around the country in addition to a full day of music. The festival, named after Allman’s 1973 solo album, has featured chart-topping rock acts, including Allman himself, The Doobie Brothers, Jackson Browne, Steve Winwood, Jason Isbell, Jaimoe’s Jasssz Band, and many more since 2015.
The festival lineup comes on the heels of Steve Miller Band’s recent Americana Tour announcement, which will take the classic rock mainstay to 40 shows across North America, joined by Marty Stuart and His Fabulous Superlatives and Gary Mule Deer.
