Coachella Festival to Welcome Americana Artists
The promoter of the annual Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival held in Indio, California recently announced that the festival will expand to include an extra week dedicated to country music. The first weekend of the festival will be held on April 27-29 and will feature a variety of rock performers to be named in early 2007. The following weekend (May 5-6) the festival will welcome country, bluegrass and Americana artists for the first time. The main stage will feature country music performers, including George Strait, Kenny Chesney and Sugarland. The festival will dedicate secondary stages to alt-country and Americana artists (including Willie Nelson and Lucinda Williams) and bluegrass performers (including Ricky Scaggs, Earl Scruggs and Nickel Creek). The festival has emerged as the West Coast’s premier rock festival since its inception in 1999.
