Voodoo Fest adds Jack White, more Today marks St. John's Day, a day of high ritual for traditional Voodoo practitioners. We no longer have Marie Laveau preaching on the Bayou, but we did get an announcement about more music acts for Voodoo Fest. The Fest announced yesterday that Jack White was added to the list of headliners. He's no longer a White Stripe, but continues to work solo, with a new album titled Blunderbuss out this year. And that's not all!
Also announced were shaggy rockers The Avett Brothers, Kaskade, dance music heroes Justice, the Silversun Pickups, JFK of MSTRKRFT, AWOLNATION, Étienne De Crécy, K’Naan, Dave Stewart, The Gaslamp Killer, Thomas Dolby, Borgore, Nervo and Supagroup. |
