Outlaw Music Festival with Willie Nelson, Particle Kid, and more

Willie Nelson, born in Abbott, Texas, is a pivotal figure in post-rock & roll country music known for his outlaw country style. Collaborating with Waylon Jennings, he became a star with albums like "Shotgun Willie" and "Red Headed Stranger." He's famed for hits "Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain" and "On the Road Again" and his genre-blending style integrating pop, jazz, and blues. Nelson's partnerships include Merle Haggard, Ray Price, and Kris Kristofferson. Despite challenges, like an IRS battle, his legendary status endures with diverse projects and Grammy awards.

The Avett Brothers, from North Carolina, gained fame with "I And Love And You" in 2009. Known for their folk-rock style, they scored hits like "True Sadness" and received two GRAMMY® nods. They've performed on Jimmy Kimmel Live! and were honored in the North Carolina Music Hall of Fame. Their 2017 documentary, co-directed by Judd Apatow, was acclaimed. They raised $325,000 for Hurricane Florence relief and topped charts with "Closer Than Together" featuring "High Steppin'."

Formed in 2000 by Campbell, The Dirty Knobs feature Heartbreakers' Steve Ferrone. Known for 2020's "Wreckless Abandon," they've evolved into nuanced rock storytellers.
