Who's Who's at Roo?
It is official!! The Bonnaroo 2020 lineup has been released, and the excitement level for this four day music and arts festival is unreal. Tickets have been purchased, playlists have been created, and outfit ideas are in the works as we speak.
With headliners like Tool, Lizzo, and Tame Impala--it is no wonder that the first two pricing tiers sold out in hours. Tickets are still under $350, so get them while you can! This musical outdoors adventure is an unforgettable experience!
We wanted to take a minute to dive into the lineup with you. Obviously we’ll be checking out the headliners and bigger acts like our girl Miley, Bassnectar, The 1975, Lana Del Ray, and Vampire Weekend...but ladies there are hundreds of artists that will be performing at Bonnaroo. We took some time to check out every artist on the lineup, and here are some of the artists that you may not know but should get to know at Bonnaroo (and if you’re not going, still check them out because they are dope!).
So, who’s who at roo?! Below are 21 artists that you may not be on your radar, but you will want to check out! We included their top song on Spotify, with a brief description of their sound.
1. ATLiens - Contact
“most identifiable by their extraterrestrial existence and masked aura”
4. Briston Maroney - Freakin’ Out On the Interstate

“blurring the lines between electronic and hip-hop with latin influences”
6. Colony House - Silhouettes
“fuses swampy blues, scuzzy garage rock, and infectious indie pop”
7. Dermot Kennedy - Outnumbered
Irish singer-songwriter has a “bruising voice and bracing lyrics”...also did we mention that Irish accent?
8. Ganja White Night - Flava
“make[ing] waves in the electronic community with their iconic Wobble sound” blessing us all the way from their Belgian roots
9. Hero The Band - Trouble In My Mind
a quartet of brothers “emerge at a sonic crossroads between galactic arena rock, experimental alternative, and swaggering R&B,” taking boy bands to a whole new level
10. Kevin Gates - 2 Phones
autobiographical lyrics, and southern roots are displayed in this rappers take, sharing his personal experiences with battles of depression, poverty and time spent in prison
11. Lennon Stella - Takeaway, La Di Da
Canada raised, and Nashville based, she has stormed the world with acting, fashion, writing, and singing stints, her soulful voice is simply captivating

not so embarrassingly, this was a recommendation from Nic’s kid sister but this is some serious feel-good music with an upbeat vibe
