Boots & Hearts took to their social media channels last week and told everyone to be ready for a big announcement. And so we waited.
And then this morning it came.
11 new names were added to the 2014 Boots & Hearts lineup which brings us to a total of 20 acts + The Reklaws who won the 2013 Sirius XM Emerging Artist contest.
2013′s lineup had 33 artists listed, which means that we will probably get 1 more major announcement before the final list of names is available for July 31 to August 3 in Bowmanville, ON.
Here are today’s 11 new additions in alphabetical order:
⋆ Dan + Shay
⋆ Danielle Bradbery*
⋆ David Lee Murphy
⋆ Deric Ruttan*
⋆ Jess Moskaluke
⋆ Jordan McIntosh
⋆ Paul Brandt
⋆ Sam Hunt
⋆ Sawyer Brown
⋆ Tyler Farr
*2 more correct predictions from earlier this year!
The announcement was made with this video, introducing all of the acts, 1 at a time, along with the 9 previously announced acts… again in alphabetical order:
⋆Blake Shelton
⋆Hunter Hayes
⋆Lee Brice
⋆Luke Bryan
⋆Neal McCoy
⋆The Road Hammers
⋆Tim Hicks
⋆Toby Keith
Have a look.
We’re still 5 months away from congregating out in the sticks to listen to country music for 4 days, but the excitement was started.
Stay tuned for pre-festival features on artists we’ll be seeing and other country acts that we could be seeing on the Boots & Hearts stages.
Work Hard, Play Harder, Be Awesome.
