Another collaborative project appearing at the festival is new L.A. octet Works Progress Administration, which brings together Glenn Phillips (Toad the Wet Sprocket), Sean Watkins (Nickel Creek), Sara Watkins (Nickel Creek), Luke Bulla (Jerry Douglas Band), Benmont Tench (Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers), Greg Leisz (Lucinda Williams), Pete Thomas (Elvis Costello & The Imposters) and Davey Faragher (Cracker).
