BloodRoot Wines, the sustainably farmed Sonoma County wine project created by Noah and Kelly Dorrance, on Wednesday announced the date and lineup for the return of The Ramble, their annual grassroots music and wine festival in Healdsburg.
The festival will take place on Saturday, June 6, at Abel de la Luna Community Center fields, and feature headline sets from several award-winning music artists, including Austin rockers Spoon and GRAMMY-nominated pop band Lucius.
“Having Spoon headline this year feels absolutely surreal—they’ve been one of our favorite bands for years, and bringing them to Healdsburg is truly special,” said Noah Dorrance. He and his wife also run Reeve Wines, whose visitors center is in Dry Creek Valley. The BloodRoot tasting room is on North Street in downtown Healdsburg.
Other participating music groups include Devon Gilfillian, an artist whose influences span soul, hip-hop, R&B and rock; Tropa Magica, a Los Angeles-based band crafting a vibrant fusion of ’60s Peruvian cumbia, ’90s grunge and neo-Southern psychedelia; and the Plastic Cherries from Salt Lake City, known for their electrifying, theatrical live shows.
What began with the Dorrances’ passion for music and wine has grown into a festival that brings people together through unforgettable performances and a shared commitment to making a difference in the world. Much of that stems from their support of GIFFORDS, a national organization dedicated to preventing gun violence. That partnership honors the memory of the Dorrances’ niece, Evelyn, who was killed in the shooting at The Covenant School in Nashville.
“At its heart, The Ramble celebrates music, connection and the power of gathering,” said Kelly Dorrance. “This is how we know to make a difference: through hospitality and the joy of community.”
Now in its fourth year, The Ramble continues to highlight Sonoma County’s finest wines and food, as well as nationally acclaimed musical talent. Early-bird tickets go on sale Friday, March 13, with the full ticket suite available Friday, March 20.
