Half a dozen bands have been added to the 14th annual All Good Music Festival taking place July 8-11 in Masontown, WV at Marvin's Mountaintop. Expanding on an already robust and diverse lineup of over 40 bands at the four-night event, the recently added artists include:
Derek Trucks and Susan Tedeschi Band: Unquestionably the
most formidable husband and wife team in the history of rock music, Derek Trucks
and Susan Tedeschi have put together a new band that performs an original
mixture of rock, soul, funk and blues.
Dr. Dog: "There's a
little folk, blues, indie rock, soul, bluegrass--and a whole lot of down-home
harmonizing. It conjures images of old friends sitting on a porch swapping
instruments and just letting the tape recorder run." - Philadelphia
Weekly
SOJA: Hailing from Washington
D.C., SOJA embodies the best qualities of Jamaican reggae music
styling.
Everyone Orchestra: Matt Butler brings together a
revolving cast of stellar musicians to conduct a celebratory, interactive,
improvisational experiment that spans musical genres, breaking the boundaries of
how an audience experiences music.
The New Mastersounds:
This instrumental four-piece British export offers a modern take on
vintage soul-jazz, funk and rock delivering gritty grooves and deep rhythms.
Papadosio: This group creates rootsy and eclectic grooves,
blending modern electronica into an upbeat, danceable mix.
