Gig Alert: The Jayhawks at Americana Fest at Lincoln Center on Sat. 8/12, Damrosch ParkTickets: Free. Fest starts at 2PM. Jayhawks perform as part of the 6PM show on Saturday. There's another show on Sunday, 8/13 as well, with Bonnie Raitt.
Since forming in Minnesota 30 years ago, The Jayhawks have been drawing on country, rock, and folk music.
