The Swan and Dolphin Food & Wine Classic features live music by tons of different performers, and they just announced the lineup! The headliner is The Rundown, one of Central Florida’s top rock bands, delivering a crowd-pleasing mix of classic rock, ‘80s favorites, ‘90s hits, pop, and country. Live Effect, a high-energy 7-piece Florida party band, will perform top hits from yesterday and today for audiences of all kinds.

Also in the lineup is Stella Beat, an award-winning Latin pop and Top 40 variety band known for energetic performances, choreography, and audience interaction on major stages from Las Vegas to Walt Disney World. You can also catch Slickwood, a Central Florida jamgrass and folk-rock band blending roots, funk, and high-energy musicianship into their signature “Jamgrass Roots” sound.
