The newest major music festival announces an impressive lineup as the first-ever “Orlando Calling” celebrating American Music.

Set for Nov. 12-13, at Florida’s Citrus Bowl Park, and with a lineup dripping with talent, playing across four stages, the event’s daily schedules seem to list just about everyone on the road this fall.

Nov. 12 features The Killers on top of a lineup that includes Pixies, The Avett Brothers, The Roots, The Raconteurs, Gogol Bordello, O.A.R., Iron & Wine, Pete Yorn, Gavin DeGraw, Jenny And Johnny, Drive-By Truckers, Civil Twilight, Lucero, Dr. Dog, Justin Townes Earle, Felice Brothers, Ben Sollee and Renee & The Translators.

A heaping helping of Detroit Rock tops the Nov. 13 lineup with Bob Seger and Kid Rock sharing headlining duties. Other acts appearing on Orlando Calling’s second day include Doobie Brothers, Dwight Yoakam, Buddy Guy, Warren Haynes Band, Chris Isaak, Brandi Carlile, Robert Randolph & The Family Band, Michelle Branch, The Flatlanders, Los Lonely Boys, Blues Traveler, Justin Townes Earle, The David Mayfield Parade and The Supervillains.

Yes, we will have passes. No, they won't last long.
