The third annual Hippiefest will hit the road this summer, celebrating the music of the ‘60s and ‘70s. This year’s outing coincides with the 40th anniversary of the “Summer of '68,” a period which laid the groundwork for many styles of modern rock. An eclectic mix of classic rock acts have signed on for this year’s festivities, including Cream bassist Jack Bruce, Eric Burdon & The Animals, Melanie, The Turtles featuring Flo & Eddie, Terry Sylvester, Janis Ian, Badfinger’s Joey Molland and Jonathan Edwarsds. The revue is scheduled to kick off July 11 at Phoenix, AZ’s The Dodge Theater and stop in most major markets before wrapping up August 10 at Pompano Beach, FL’s Pompano Beach Amphitheater. As in years past, fans can also expect some onstage collaborations throughout the extended outing.
