Labor Day Weekend is always a bit different in Rhode Island when the Rhythm & Roots Festival comes around. Along with a ton of great music, including a tent that has bands playing zydeco and cajun music all day and night, it’s also an ideal festival to bring the family to with tons of things available to keep the kids occupied. It’s another festival with a killer lineup this year with Greensky Bluegrass, Trombone Shorty & Orleans Avenue, Robert Cray, Donna The Buffalo, Dustbowl Revival and The Infamous Stringdusters being a few of the performing acts.
