Another edition of Merlefest will be happening this April, and the lineup has just been announced.

The festival was founded by Doc Watson in 1988 and named the event after his son, Eddy Merle Watson, who died in a tractor accident in 1985. The event raises funds for Wilkesboro, North Carolina’s Wilkes Community College Foundation. Tickets for the fest are on sale now.
