Michael Arnone, the producer and founder of Augusta, N.J.’s Crawfish Fest, is still hoping to host the festival this summer, even amidst COVID-19 cancellations. However, after Christone “Kingfish” Ingram, who was set to perform at the festival, canceled all of his August dates, Arnone has shared an update on the festival’s lineup.

“Christone “Kingfish” Ingram has canceled all of his August Dates. Amanda Fish is available and confirmed. The full lineup is posted on our website,” Arnone wrote in a press release. Jon Cleary & The Absolute Monster Gentlemen have also been added, and Samantha Fish is still set to perform.

The festival previously moved from its initial dates to new dates (Aug. 21-23). When the event was rescheduled, Tab Benoit was unable to adjust. Anders Osborne, Southern Avenue and many more are still set to perform (see the full lineup as it appears on the event’s website below).

“I have high hopes for August,” wrote Arnone in a press release. “I just have no idea what tomorrow will bring. All I can tell you is that I will work as hard as I can for you to have a great time with safety as our main priority for all involved.”
