Explore the Bands

Friday, August 3
Band of Horses – 9:30 pm – Listen
A beloved indie act with many much-loved songs, including “The Funeral” and “No One’s Gonna Love You.” Be sure to catch up on these and their latest album ‘Why Are You OK’ before the fest.

CHVRCHES – 8:00 pm – Listen
An electronic trio out of the musical city of Glasgow. This is the set that will be bringing the dance party on Friday night.

Tash Sultana – 6:30 pm – Listen
This Australian wonder woman made a name for herself with her homemade viral videos and multi-instrumentalist skill, first busking on the streets of Melbourne and now selling out venues around the world.

Ancient Posse – 5:15 pm – Listen
This Des Moines-based duo have an eclectic mix of influences from Thom Yorke to romantic composers to Erykah Badu to AC/DC. They are going places and we’re pleased to be on the train.

Saturday, August 4
Sturgill Simpson – 9:30 pm – Listen
Born in Kentucky, Sturgill Simpson is a lauded country and roots rock singer. Go take a listen to his Grammy-winning concept album ‘A Sailor’s Guide to Earth.’

Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats – 8:00 pm – Listen
Rolling Stone said it best — “Nathaniel Rateliff and the Night Sweats went from local Denver heroes to perhaps the most improbable breakout of the past decade – and they’re not slowing down.”

Blackberry Smoke – 6:30 pm – Listen
Since emerging from Atlanta in the early ‘00s, the quintet has become known for a singular sound indebted to classic rock, blues, country and folk.

Margo Price – 5:15 pm – Listen
Margo is pretty lovable. Her talent is off the charts, plus she’s recently been seen onstage performing with Sturgill Simpson. Will we get to witness a special duet at Hinterland?!

Anderson East – 4:00 pm – Listen
A Nashville fixture with a Southern soul sound. He just released an emotive new album, Encore – give it a spin. We’re loving it.

J Roddy Walston and The Business – 2:45 pm – Listen
Get ready to get rowdy. They are known for their energetic and often manic performances. Watch out for flying piano stools.

Tyler Childers – 1:45 pm – Listen
Sturgill produced his debut album, which is one we’ve had on repeat a lot this year. He’s a masterful storyteller and songwriter. Go look up and watch his NPR Tiny Desk Concert before the festival, too.

Joshua Hedley – 12:45 pm – Listen
This generation’s classic country champion. His highly anticipated debut album, ‘Mr. Jukebox,’ was released in April and the praise from critics is rolling in. Come see why.

The Nadas – 11:45 am – Listen
2018 marks the 25th year of The Nadas. If you’ve never seen them perform, can you truly call yourself an Iowan? We’re looking forward to celebrating our hometown band.

Campfire Stage
If you’ve camped with us before, you know that the camping experience is one of the best parts of the festival. One reason? The Campfire Stage performances exclusively for campers each night from 11:00 pm (after the headliners) until2:00 am. You must have a camping pass to gain access.
