10,000 Lakes Festival 2007 (10KLF) | Artist Additions, Round Two

The fifth annual 10,000 Lakes Festival — which takes place July 18 – 21 in Detroit Lakes, MN — has made some additions to its 2007 lineup, including the following new artists:

The Tragically Hip
Zappa Plays Zappa
Particle
Blueground Undergrass
Outformation
The Lee Boys
Big Organ Trio
That 1 Guy

Looks like a few other acts are also being confirmed in this round, including:

Kinetix
Stealin’ Strings
Down Lo
White Iron Band
Hobo Nephews
The Smokin’ Bandits
Unity
Madahoochi
The Lighterside of Being.

Not too shabby…a few solid names on the jam circuit, but nothing that would make or break the original announcement in my eyes. By the way, if you dig Robert Randolph’s sound, check out the Lee Boys; I caught them down at Langerado and they have some solid potential with that “sacred” pedal steel.

It’s also cool to see 10KLF making some headway in the “green” department. Here’s what they’re saying:

Taking a green approach to powering the festival through a partnership with CLIF Bar and NativeEnergy, the 10,000 Lakes Festival now allows patrons to offset the CO2 emissions of their automobile or airline travel up to the festival by purchasing ‘Cool Tags’ at the online ticket check out. Each Cool Tag invests $2 in NativeEnergy’s WindBuilders program, helping the Rosebud Sioux Tribe build a wind farm on their reservation in South Dakota. Wind farms deliver clean, renewable energy to the grid without releasing CO2 into the air, thereby displacing energy that comes from polluting facilities.
