Bonnaroo will take 2027 off. A message from the festival's promoters explains, “To our Bonnaroo Family, THANK YOU for an epic Bonnaroo 2026. Our hearts are filled to the brim from the weekend that we shared in June. The Farm remains as special as ever, and for a few days, we were once again reminded of the good things in this world. As you know, we spent a great deal of effort and money working to improve the campgrounds and Centeroo in the months leading into the 2026 festival. That included improved drainage, 4.5 miles of new roadways and 135 acres of new grass, all which strengthened The Farm’s resiliency to Mother Nature.

Matisyahu has long occupied a unique place in the live-music world. Though raised in a Reconstructionist Jewish home right outside New York City—where he frequently attended jamband concerts in the late ’90s—the 47-year-old-musician first stepped into the national spotlight as a Hassidic reggae singer and rapper in the mid-2000s, a few years after he started attending an Orthodox Jewish synagogue on the Upper West Side. In the span of a few short years, he churned out radio hits like “King Without a Crown” and “One Day,” the latter of which has gradually aged into a religious-school standard around the world. At the same time, the singer, who was born Matthew Miller, has long leaned into his love of improvisational music while on stage, collaborating with prominent voices from the jamband world and frequently drawing from the post-Phish playbook.

In July Taylor Goldsmith confirmed the existence of the group.

To create 2015’s Junun, Radiohead guitarist Jonny Greenwood, poet-musician Shye Ben Tzur and the Indian folk-music collective The Rajasthan Express decamped to the inner chambers of a 500-year-old desert fortress in India’s mystical blue city of Jodhpur—about as unorthodox a recording studio as you could imagine.
