Promoter Peter Noble is set to reveal the festival’s final line-up tomorrow morning. Also joining the iconic “Like A Rolling Stone” troubadour next year at the event will be veteran blues guitarist/singer B.B. King, who returns to Australia at the spritely age of 85. 

One of the festival’s regular guests meanwhile, Ben Harper, will make a return visit (coincidentally Harper owns property in the region), while British rock royalty Elvis Costello will also play a set at the three-day event.

Taking place over the Easter weekend – Thursday 21 to Monday 25 April, 2011 – the Bluesfest will take place on the festival’s newly permanent property at Tyagarah Tree Farm. Also set to be announced tomorrow are:

Michael Franti, Rodrigo y Gabriela, the Cat Empire, Blind Boys of Alabama featuring Aaron Neville, Derek Trucks and Susan Tedeschi Band, Robert Randolph and the Family Band, Fistful of Mercy, Mavis Staples, Xavier Rudd, Trinity Roots, Little Bushman, Tony Joe White, Indigo Girls, Kate Miller-Heidke, C.W. Stoneking, Jeff Lang and more.
