When it was announced earlier this year that Lilith Fair was returning in 2010, we were excited, but slightly nervous - bringing back a tour like that is a lot of work, and sometimes nostalgia makes things seem cooler than they actually were. Could they still get great artists? Would we still be excited about the lineup? Would it still be a celebration of women in music?
The answer is yes, yes, yes, as the Lilith lineup was announced today. There's a delightful combination of original members of the 90s Lilith lineup, like Sheryl Crow, Emmylou Harris, Indigo Girls, Tegan and Sara and Erykah Badu, as well as newbies to the Lilith experience like Metric, Mary J. Blige, Miranda Lambert and Ingrid Michaelson, and there's a mix of genres, from singer-songwriter to rock to pop to country to hip hop. If only all music festivals (ahem, Perry Farrel) were as diverse as this lineup. The organizers say there's more to come, but in the meantime, here's the confirmed lineup so far -
