Rhythm and Roots 15th Anniversary Lineup Announced

The 2012 Rhythm & Roots Festival, is pleased to announce it's 15th Anniversary Celebration lineup, featuring a host of all-stars from every direction in the world of Roots Music... from red hot Cajun and zydeco dance music and down and dirty blues, to the best of French Canadian rhythms, mesmerizing dance/groove tunes, and jumpin' early Southern black string music. You won't want to miss a beat—not even one!

Perhaps coolest of all: The Doctor will be in the house (Dr. House, that is, Hugh Laurie) with his incredible blues band, in striking contrast to the always intoxicating performances of Texas' most celebrated singer/songwriter, Ms. Nanci Griffith.
