“Thirty-one years in and we have one of the most diverse Telluride Blues & Brews Festival lineups ever,” Festival Director and Founder Steve Gumble said in a news release. “Our favorite brothers and recent Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame nominees, The Black Crowes return for the first time since 2013 in the top slot. They have to be one of our favorite acts over the years and will surely bring a fierce mix of Southern Rock, blues and soul. We’re thrilled to welcome funk phenom, Thundercat for his Telluride debut that will groove us Saturday night. And I look forward to hearing that unmistakable voice and country-blues from Lukas Nelson again on our stage.”
