Nateva Festival Announces Headliners, Some More Acts

The lineup for the inaugural Naveta Festival is slowly starting to take shape.  The festival  announced The Flaming Lips as a headliner as soon as the festival's existence was announced, but now we have some other headliners, as well as a better understanding of the theme.

The Nateva Music & Camping Festival is a 3-day, multi stage outdoor camping event to be held July 2nd, 3rd & 4th at the beautiful 100 acre Oxford Fairgrounds – 2 hours and 25 minutes from Boston and 45 minutes from Portland, Maine. As New England’s premier Jam based music festival, we look forward to bringing you world class artists in the true Jam Band tradition – as well as a sweet mix of Country, Folk, Reggae, Classic Rock and Indie Artists too.

Their headliners certainly drive home the jam band emphasis.  While the previously announced headliner The Flaming Lips will hold down the Saturday spot, the rest of the nights have a nice mix of the entire jam band spectrum.  Furthur has been announced as the headliner for the 4th of July, while moe. will handle the Friday evening duties.  Even though the website information consistently state the dates as July 2-4 they have announced the up and comping Lotus as the Thursday headliner for "those weekend campers that wish to come early".  No word yet on if there will be other bands playing on Thursday.

Other additions to the lineup include The Derek Trucks & Susan Tedeschi Band, Zappa Plays Zappa, Keller Williams, and Moonalice.  We'll update you with lineup additions as they come.  Tickets are on sale now through the Nateva Festival website.
