LILITH FAIR RETURNING IN 2010
FROM THE CANADIAN PRESS
LILITH FAIR is coming back in 2010.
A spokesperson for the NETTWERK MUSIC GROUP said that the all female concert tour would return next year in the summertime.
NETTWERK’S RICH ADAMS says cofounder SARAH McLACHLAN will be involved in the revived fest, but wouldn’t specify whether it would be in the capacity of performer or organizer.
The touring festival initially ran from 1997 – 1999 and featured only female artists or female led bands, including FIONA APPLE, SHERYL CROW, SINEAD O’CONNOR, QUEEN LATIFAH and THE DIXIE CHICKS.
The festival raised more than $10 million for womens’ charities.
NETTWERK CEO TERRY McBRIDE recently Twittered about the fest, announcing last Friday that it would return and then adding on Saturday: “LILITH FAIR will look at doing two weeks in the U.K./Europe in 2010.”
