JEREMY JACKSON BAND - 6:00
THIRD EYE BLIND - 9:30
Jeremy Jackson plays an “alt-country” style
of rock music, something equally likely to
appear on a pop station as to show up in a
rock radio playlist. His previous bands have
opened for huge acts like the band Live. He
shares two decades of music history with
his current bandmates, Tony Robinson and
Josh McCary, and newcomer Charley Freeman. Visit jeremyjacksonband.com to check
them out.
Even hermits living in their caves know Third
Eye Blind’s hit, “Semi-Charmed Life,” an infectious pop ditty that sat at number one on Billboard’s Modern Rock charts for five weeks in
1997 and became a staple soundtrack song
for the next few years. The self-titled album
that spawned that hit also gave us “Jumper,”
“How’s It Going to Be” and “Losing a Whole
Year,” among others. Visit thirdeyeblind.com
to check them out.
BLACK JOE LEWIS 7:30
This Austin, Texas band is the epitome of
cool, featuring funky Motown-style blues,
jazz and funk beneath the vintage, James
Brown-esque voice of Joe Lewis. They’ve
been to Bonnaroo and played The Late Show
with David Letterman, and Esquire magazine
recognized them as an upcoming, breakout
act. Visit blackjoelewis.com to get a taste of
their jams before catching them at Riverfest.
