“Shinedown” Hard rockers from Florida, Shinedown, is known for their touring schedule which is always packaged with such great rock bands. Their debut album, Leave a Whisper, was released in 2003 and it experienced success largely due to the single, “Fly From the Inside.” Three years later, they are still topping charts with songs including, “I Dare You” and “Save Me.” Their sophomore album, Us and Them, was released in October of 2005 with great acceptance from their fans.

“Trapt” These Northern California rockers may be young, but Trapt, is a rock band that is truly talented with a unique hard and heavy sound. Their self-titled debut album was released in 2002 and sold two million copies. Following the success of that album, came a sold out national tour, which had the band playing as many as 300 dates in one year. Their much anticipated follow-up album, Someone In Control, was released in 2005 and their singles, “Stand Up” and “Disconnected” were well received. They are currently touring with Nickelback and are climbing the charts with their latest hit, “Waiting.”
The Common Ground Music Festival will once again be a multi-day celebration including nightly concerts, a variety of fun family entertainment and an assortment of food vendors. Anyone interested in volunteering at Common Ground can contact the festival office at (517) 267-1502 ext. 202.
