Headlining on Saturday, September 14 is singer, songwriter, activist Michael Franti and Spearhead. Franti believes that there is a great battle taking place in the world today between cynicism and optimism, so he made his most recent album, Stay Human Vol. II, to remind himself and anyone else who’s listening, that there is still good in the world and that it is worth fighting for.

On Sunday, the legendary Don Carlos, the gentleman of reggae, takes the stage. This Jamaican reggae singer and composer began singing in 1973 as a member of Black Uhuru and sang alongside Garth Dennis and Derrick Simpson. In 1990 he re-united as the lead vocalist for a Black Uhuru album.
