Third Eye Blind and Good Charlotte will both rock out on Saturday. May 28’s lineup also includes Soul Asylum, Coolie Ranx, Bronze Radio Return, The Drive, Goodbye Friday, A Clear Blurr, Nicola, Kilby Tayler Band and Quimby Mountain Band.
Sunday’s lineup features
New Pornographers help close out the festival May 30. Monday’s lineup also includes From Good Homes, Sister Hazel, Cracker, Amber Rubarth and more.
Performers will be divided up between the 13,000-capacity outdoor Humanity Field main stage and the 3,000-capacity covered Humanity Village Stage. Fans won’t have to choose between seeing their favorite acts because all artists will play in succession rather than simultaneously on Saturday, Sunday and Monday.
