Spring Back to Vail announces Counting Crows in first wave of artist lineup

Spring Back to Vail, which takes place Thursday, April 9-Sunday, April 12 this year, has announced the first bands on its lineup.

Friday will see performances from Dispatch and Soja. Saturday’s headliners are Counting Crows and St. Paul and the Broken Bones.

Dispatch’s folk, indie and sunny vibes that come from spending lots of time in Northern California will surely bring a warm flavor to Friday’s shows. Sojas’ reggae sound dovetails nicely.

Counting Crows emerged in 1994 with the breakout hit “Mr. Jones” and followed up with “Recovering the Satellites” in 1996. The band is known for its live shows and also famously authored “Accidentally in Love” for the movie “Shrek 2.”

St. Paul and the Broken Bones bring flavorful Americana and have played in the Vail Valley numerous times.
