Utah Arts Festival’s musical headliners promise rock, folk, reggae, bluegrass and more

Pick a musical style — bluegrass, rock, funk, reggae, soul, folk, blues, R&B, country, jazz — and one of the headlining acts at the 2019 Utah Arts Festival probably mixes at least two of them.

The annual summer festival, spotlighting visual and performance art of all varieties for all ages, is set for June 20-23 at Library Square and Washington Square in downtown Salt Lake City.

The Slackers • Self-billed as “Jamaican rock ’n’ roll,” this band has been touring for more than 28 years with its blend of ska, reggae and soul.
