Beck, Wilco, BSS, Devendra Added to Outside Lands
Also Black Mountain, Bon Iver, Andrew Bird, M. Ward, Manu Chao, Sharon Jones

Rumored, confirmed, and now with more than three bands to talk about, San Francisco's inaugural Outside Lands Music and Arts Festival-- going down in San Francisco's Golden Gate Park August 22-24-- is shaping up quite nicely.

In addition to previously announced headliners Radiohead, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, and Jack Johson, the fest has added Beck, Wilco, Broken Social Scene, Black Mountain, Devendra Banhart, Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings, Bon Iver, Drive-By Truckers, Andrew Bird, M. Ward, Nellie McKay, Manu Chao, Regina Spektor, the Cool Kids, Two Gallants, the Coup, Steel Pulse, Lyrics Born, Cold War Kids, Café Tacuba, and both Little Brother and the Felice Brothers, who are apparently unrelated to each other.

The Jack Johnson fan in your life will be sated by appearances from Ben Harper, Widespread Panic, Primus and Galactic, while the Tom Petty contingent will get a boost from Steve "Higher Love" Winwood.
