Lizzo and Howard are 1/2 as the best vocalists imo. I also like Lana’s voice. The rest are good singers but like Bridgers signing isn’t what makes her good imo. She’s a good singer but her strength is writing.
E: also Janelle is very good but I am not a big Janelle fan

Also in terms of musicianship, Mdou and Kingfish are top 10. I’m not a jam guy but I can respect it I just don’t know the individual members.
With Tyler and Parker, they are very good creatives but in terms of on stage musicianship, probably not. Great studio musicians but it’s not like Tyler is producing beats on stage. I’ll also say Lizzo because she has a great voice and is doing so while dancing.

I think Grace Potter also has a fantastic voice.
can’t say I’ve listened to a whole lot. My bias on whose music I like the most is for sure showing.
there are some people convinced that the Sylvan Esso presents WITH Superjam will just be a Sylvan Esso show despite the word “Superjam” on the lineup
Yeah I don’t understand why people are so confused. The WITH band is already the concept of a super jam band. Members from other bands joining in together. It will be a covers set and it will be a super jam. Otherwise it would just be billed as Sylvan Esso presents WITH
It's not going to be a covers set. Sylvan Esso even included Bonnaroo on their tour poster. They said "We're bringing the WITH show to Bonnaroo." I don't think there would be much point in bringing in Sylvan Esso and the band they put together to rework their songs just to play covers. I think there will be some covers and guests, but mostly Sylvan Esso songs.
Imagine if it was the 2020 lineup. You’d have to remove 3 white names alone to add three more white guys named Adam, Danny and Justin. Plus with Oysterhead you’d also have to add Trey.

You guys really think they just wanted to call it a Superjam for no reason don’t you. Stop being weird, it’s a superjam it’ll be cover oriented

I could easily see them slapping the Superjam label on the WITH set just to save the trouble and logistical hurdles of having to organize an actual SJ though
Garcia Peoples isn’t a must see band for me, but they’re close, and I bet their set on that Who stage rips.
Probably gonna get dunked on for this but:
It would be cool if they played somewhere in the campgrounds also. I saw Backup Planet at a plaza or somewhere among some vendors on my way back from Centeroo one night, don't remember which year.
I was there as well and that was fire. Feel like there was only 16 of us

even in the years they half assed the lineup they still managed to at least bring in a few unexpected artists and put together a unique show for the Superjam
I really don’t think they’re just calling the normal Sylvan Esso WITH show a Superjam
We’ll I won’t be a coward and will name a name. And that name is Nate Smith. Brittany Howard’s drummer and the dude absolutely rips. He’s up there for sure
Yeah Nate Smith’s definitely on my list.
I’ll also throw out Joe Armon-Jones, who’s the keyboardist for Nubya Garcia (also Ezra Collective).
The greensky bluegrass guys are a very talented bunch as well even though it’s not always my thing.

I said there would be some guests (Sylvan Esso confirmed this), which would qualify it as a Superjam. But do you really think Sylvan Esso would have Bonnaroo as a date on their tour poster if they were just playing covers? Also the WITH band was formed to rework their own material, so I don't see Sylvan Esso or Roo choosing them to host the Superjam - especially when Sylvan Esso isn't even on the lineup by themselves - if they're just playing covers like normal. Not saying I'm definitely going to be right, that's just what makes the most sense to me.

I had a source confirm to me that they were leading the superjam in December of 2019. I posted about it in here. The news was not “Sylvan Esso is playing Bonnaroo” it was “Sylvan Esso is leading the superjam”.

It’s just what it is
Well yes, I don't think what I said goes against that. I'm assuming your source didn't know details beyond that Sylvan Esso was doing the Superjam.
