Alright, so I don't typically endorse starting a thread for a band that isn't on the lineup yet, but I'm calling my shot here.
I'm feeling really, really good about the prospects of getting Alabama Shakes at Lockn' this year. In fact, I'm pretty sure they're already booked.
Exhibit A (my only exhibit):
While their summer tour dates have been out for a few weeks, earlier today, they quietly tacked on a few more shows in the fall . . .
So there is a gap in their tour dates from August 16th to September 17th. When it resumes (just a few days after Lockn' ends), they've got shows in Philly, Maryland, and New York.
Oh, and their opening act for the three east coast gigs is Drive-By Truckers (who I assume would also be added).
Seems pretty obvious to me. I'd imagine we're waiting for Philly/MD/NY to go on sale before Lockn' can announce.
Alabama Shakes, people. If you don't know about them, look 'em up. Boys and Girls was a brilliant debut album. They're about to release Sound and Color, which already seems like a lock for album of the year.
