Los Lobos joins Ziggy Marley, more at Arizona music fest. Here's the Pure Imagination lineup
The already stellar lineup at the second annual Pure Imagination festival at Watson Lake Park in Prescott, Arizona, just got better with the news that Los Lobos and Dirtwire will join Lucinda Williams, Ziggy Marley, Allison Russell, Brandy Clark, Capital Cities and more at the eco-forward, female-founded boutique festival on Saturday, May 20, 2023.
The lineup also features sets by Ponderosa Grove, Jared James Nichols, the Brummies, Johan Glidden and DJ sets by Cole Ramstad.
The inaugural Pure Imagination festival in 2022, which featured Talib Kweli, Dawes, Fantastic Negrito, Nikki Lane, Rising Appalachia, Phantom Planet and Katie Pruitt, drew more than 5,000 music fans to Prescott for a family-friendly event that also featured aerial artists, performance groups, jugglers and art cars.
Pure Imagination founder Candace Devine, who is scheduled to perform with her band, Ponderosa Grove, says, "I am so thrilled that Pure Imagination festival was embraced so beautifully in our inaugural year. It’s the energy of our community and those who travel from near and far that create the magic that has continued to inspire all of us."
The festival at Watson Lake Park also boasts miles of hiking trails, lawn games, disc golf, 20 food trucks and opportunities to paddle on the lake. You can't kayak at Coachella, kids.
