The Suwannee SpringFest is happening this weekend! Rubber Souldiers will perform Friday afternoon on the Amphitheater Stage, and again (under the guise of “David Gans and Friends”) Saturday evening in the Music Hall. Fellow Souldiers Chris and Lorin Rowan will do their wonderful duo thing, too. I perform solo Friday morning, 10 am on the Amphitheater Stage. Also appearing: Donna the Buffalo, Emmitt Nershi Band, The Duhks, The Lee Boys, Darrell Scott, Darol Anger & Mike Marshall with Väsen, Blueground Undergrass, Dread Clampitt, and many more! It all happens at the Spirit of the Suwannee Music Park at Live Oak, Florida, just south of the Georgia line.
