Ten new acts have been added to the mix of performers for the 2008 Food & Wine festival Eat To The Beat concerts at Epcot. Eight of last years acts will be returning. It’s definitely time for some new blood and the new acts are quite an eclectic group. They are: Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, En Vogue, Jonny Lang, Peabo Bryson, Sister Hazel, Spyro Gyra, Boyz II men, Night Ranger, Atlanta Rhythm Section and Los Lobos.
