Bristol Fest Adds Jeff Tweedy to Event

We couldn’t be more excited by the news that the Bristol Rhythm and Roots Reunion Festival has added Jeff Tweedy to the line-up for Sat. 9/20/14 – same day The Successful Failures are playing.  Can’t wait!  Uncle Tupelo and then Wilco, especially Tweedy’s songwriting and singing, have been a great inspiration to us throughout the years.  What an honor!
