Bonnaroo officially dropped their lineup today, and it’s no slouch. The festival will run from June 7-10 in its usual spot in Manchester, Tennessee. Headliners for this year include Radiohead, The Red Hot Chili Peppers, and Phish. The bill also sports a reunited Beach Boys crew, and some guy named Bon Iver who happens to be trending after winning best new artist at the Grammys.
While the festival still plans to announce more names, including the participants of their trademark superjam performance, this festival seems to be extremely eclectic and loaded with talent. Acts like Skrillex, The Alabama Shakes, Kendrick Lamar, The Civil Wars, The Roots, and The Black Lips, will definitely make for one hell of a weekend.
