July 18-19 and will feature more than 30 acts acts including Modest Mouse, Cage the Elephant, Band of Horses, The Avett Brothers, Primus and St. Paul & the Broken Bones, who opened for The Rolling Stones during their Atlanta tour stop in June. The event will also highlight regional craft beer and craft cocktail scene.
