Promoters with the fourth annual Appalachian Uprising music festival slated for this summer in Scottown have announced the entertainment lineup for this year's event.

Bob Delong, of Earth Productions, said the lineup includes bluegrass favorites the Sam Bush Band, the John Cowan Band, the Kentucky-based Melvin Goins and Windy Mountain and Lawrence County favorites Boss Tweed as well as Yonder Mountain String Band, Curtis Burch, Larry Keel and Natural Bridge, King Wilkie, Hot Buttered Rum String Band and more.

Delong said other performers may be added to the schedule at a later date.

"The Appalachian Uprising was created as a way to bring positive energy to a very depressed area in Appalachian Ohio," Delong said. "Drawing from music that originated in these hills, Earth Productions has managed to start a buzz of positive energy that we can hope will continue to grow with all of your help!"

The Uprising is slated for June 2-4 at Eden Valley Farm in Scottown. Last year, the three-day event drew an estimated crowd of 1,500 bluegrass music enthusiasts who came from throughout the country to partake of the entertainment.
