Beck and Norah Jones will headline this year’s Beach Road Weekend lineup, the festival announced today.
The three-day music festival takes place July 24 to July 26 at Veteran’s Park in Vineyard Haven. In addition to multiple Grammy-award winners Beck and Norah Jones, the festival will include Lake Street Dive, The Revivalists, The Head & the Heart, Guster and Father John Misty, among others.
“It’s been the hardest secret I have ever had to hold onto,” said Adam Epstein, CEO of Innovation Arts & Entertainment, referring to booking Beck and Norah Jones.
“Beck is a musicians’ rock star,” he added. “He’s got credibility with musicians and fans. And Norah Jones we had on our list from the beginning. She is a perfect sound for the Vineyard. I’m so excited I can’t contain myself.”
Last year the festival debuted in August with headliners John Fogerty and Phil Lesh and Friends.
This year’s festival will include two main stages set up side-by-side, Mr. Epstein said, with local acts also performing on the main stage.
Additional bands include Band of Horses, Margo Price, Dawes, Lettuce, Anderson East, Shovels & Rope, Brett Dennen, Leftover Salmon, Jaimoe and Friends, Shemekia Copeland, Jeremie Albino, Sammy Rae & The Friends, Neal Francis. Local acts will be announced at a later date.
Ticket packages go on sale Friday, Feb. 21 at 10 a.m. at beachroadweekend.com.
