When Riot Fest unveiled its lineup last month, organizers promised a second wave of acts to follow. Earlier Tuesday morning, they announced a handful of additional artists who'll be playing the Denver music festival, which will be taking place at the National Western Complex Sept. 2-4.
The most significant — for Jamaican music fans, at least — will be Bob Marley's son Julian performing Bob Marley & The Wailer’s 1977 Exodus album in its entirety. Other newly announced acts are Gogol Bordello, DeVotchKa, 2 Chainz, and The Lillingtons.
The festival also announced that single-day tickets will go on sale Tuesday, along with additional three-day festival passes.
