The fest is anchored by Irish singer-songwriter Hozier, American rock band Vampire Weekend, and folk-infused pop musician Noah Kahan, who’s returning for a back-to-back performance—only this time, he’s a headliner. Orville Peck, Lizzy McAlpine, and Mt. Joy will also be gracing the stage with them as support acts.
