Host band Railroad Earth will play three sets over the course of the weekend, and Karl Denson’s Tiny Universe will perform A Diesel Insane: The Music Of David Bowie, a late-night tribute to the Thin White Duke. The Hangtown 2022 lineup will also include beloved bluegrass quintet The Brothers Comatose, Afrobeat ensemble Polyrhythmics, singer-songwriter-led Ryan Monbleau Band, husband-and-wife folk duo Ordinary Elephant, Americana outfit AJ Lee & Blue Summit, and indie folk-rockers Sway Wild. Additional artists will be added to the Hangtown lineup soon.
