Rosanne Cash, Tanya Tucker, JJ Grey & Mofro are among the acts set to perform at this year’s annual Bristol Rhythm & Roots Reunion festival.

The three-day event is set for September 9-11 in Historic Downtown Bristol, Virginia-Tennessee.

Over 120 acts are scheduled to perform on 16 stages over the three days at the place where Tennessee and Virginia meet along several blocks of State Street in Bristol.

The acts include Del McCoury Band, Jerry Douglas Band, The War And Treaty, Asleep at the Wheel, The Wood Brothers, Fantastic Negrito, Briston Maroney, Sierra Ferrell and Junior Brown.

“This year marks the 95th anniversary of the 1927 Bristol Sessions and Bristol Rhythm & Roots Reunion is a celebration of that great history,” explains Leah Ross, Executive Director of Advancement for Birthplace of Country Music, the parent nonprofit of the festival, the Birthplace of Country Music Museum, and WBCM Radio Bristol. “Our lineup is a reflection of the vast influence those recordings have made on the music of today and the rich music culture of southwest Virginia and northeast Tennessee.”

Weekend and single-day passes to Bristol Rhythm & Roots Reunion are on sale now. The full lineup, artist schedule, and festival passes are available at BristolRhythm.com.
