Summer might feel a long way off, but Blue Ox Music Festival just gave fans a big reason to start circling calendars now. The Eau Claire, Wisconsin gathering has revealed its daily lineup breakdown for June 25–27, 2026, stacking each day with a mix of roots, Americana, indie rock, and cosmic twang—plus plenty more still to come.
Hosted by Pert Near Sandstone, the 2026 weekend spreads the wealth across three days: Daniel Donato’s Cosmic Country leads Thursday, Charley Crockett and The Dead South top Friday, and Saturday closes strong with the Marcus King Band alongside Kurt Vile & The Violators. Organizers also note that more artists are still to be announced.
