The Blue Note Napa Valley Jazz Festival line-up has been announced, and like last year (its inaugural year in Napa), it's great.
Curated by renowned pianist/producer Robert Glasper, this year's festival features a stacked line-up, with Dave Chappelle returning for hosting duties. Rapsody, Bilal, Nas, Mary J. Blige, Nxworries, Talib Kweli, Digable Planets, DJ Jazzy Jeff, Madlib, Derrick Hodge, Domi & Beck, Rakim, De La Soul and more are set to perform at this year's festival.
As aforementioned, last year's inaugural festival in Napa Valley also featured Chappelle as host, with Black Star, Snoop Dogg, Alex Isley, Chaka Khan, Flying Lotus, Madlib, Pharoahe Monch, Maxwell, Terrace Martin, Thundercat and more who joined Glasper for wine, good music and good times in a picturesque setting.
