Watch the latest album blog where Michael performs his new hit song, "The Sound of Sunshine," live from Bonnaroo. The song is the second single from his forthcoming album of the same name. The album will be available on August 24th. Stay posted to MichaelFranti.com for all the latest news on the album release and upcoming headling dates.
Bonnaroo's headliners this year may include southern rockers Kings of Leon and hip-hop royalty Jay-Z, but that doesn't mean that Michael Franti doesn't own the fest as much as the others. He's in the running, along with Les Claypool, My Morning Jacket and Widespread Panic for most amount of Bonnaroo appearances -- and he's right at home at the festival. As is par for the course, he had the crowd jumping and bouncing along as he led his band, Spearhead, through all the standards including 'Yell Fire' and 'East to the West.'
