NEW YORK (AP) - Bonnaroo will be more than a gig for two acts: It will help serve as the final battle for the cover of Rolling Stone.
Lelia Broussard and The Sheepdogs have been announced as the finalists for the magazine’s “Do You Wanna Be A Rock & Roll Star” contest. It started in February with 16 acts.
The winner also gets a deal with Atlantic Records.
The victor will be picked by Rolling Stone readers. They can see both acts perform at next month’s Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival in Tennessee; their performances will be streamed on the magazine’s website.
The winner will be crowned on NBC’s “Late Night with Jimmy Fallon” and also perform on the show. The Rolling Stone cover will appear on the Aug. 18 issue.
