As previously announced, Warren Haynes & Co. will co-headline Red Rocks with Yonder Mountain String Band on August 19 featuring support from The Marcus King Band. Gov’t Mule then ends the month by bringing Blackberry Smoke on the road to open two shows before Lockn’ and two shows after the Arrington, Virginia festival.
