The iconic Bonnie Raitt opens the festival Thursday evening, August 22. More than just
a best-selling artist, respected guitarist, expressive singer and accomplished songwriter,
Bonnie Raitt has become an institution in American music. Bonnie Raitt started anew
with the release of her 19th album, "Slipstream" in 2012. The album marked her
return to studio recording after seven years and the launch of her label, Redwing Records.
A huge success, "Slipstream" sold over a quarter-million copies in 2012, making it
one of the top selling independent albums, and earned Raitt her 10th GRAMMY® Award to date.
The Very Special Guest Keb' Mo' will the open the evening with his masterful blending of blues,
jazz, r&b and soul through melody and rhythm.
