The lineup for the 11th annual Bonnaroo Festival features a powerhouse lineup for headliners including Radiohead, Red Hot Chili Peppers and Phish, along with some recent Grammy winners such as Bon Iver and EDM star Skrillex.

As always, the roster of acts who will descend on the 700-acre farm in Manchester, Tennessee, for the four-day festival held June 7 to June 10 is a wildly eclectic mix of jam, rock, hip-hop, bluegrass and just about everything in between. The reunited Beach Boys are also on the list, along with the Shins, Avett Brothers, Black Star, shock rock icon Alice Cooper, Feist, rapper/actor Donald Glover as Childish Gambino, the Roots and legendary reggae-spike punk act Bad Brains.

The full roster includes more than 125 bands and 20 comedians performing on 13 stages, with tickets going on sale at noon on Saturday, February 18, on Bonnaroo.com. In addition to the dozens of on-the-ground distractions and amenities, the festival has also partnered with YouTube this year to create Bonnaroo365, a channel with original programming, daily content and some legendary live performances.
