BREAKING NEWS: The Quad Cities’ grassroots music festival “Dawn and On” revealed their talent lineup on Tuesday for their 2021 event, taking place on July 10, 2021 at Schwiebert Park in Rock Island.
With its roots in jam music, the festival’s lineup features local and national performers and remains diverse with a mix of rock, funk, bluegrass and folk bands.
The day-long festival, now heading into it’s sixth year will be headlined by Colorado jam rockers Magic Beans and Illinois Bluegrass favorites The Way Down Wanderers.

In addition to The Dawn, local acts Heads In Motion (A Talking Heads Tribute), The Textures and The Channel Cats will round out the bill.

When asked about this year’s event, The Dawn’s guitarist Sean Ryan simply said “It’s gonna be great.”
