Lin-Manuel Miranda added to Maxwell Frost's MadSoul Fest

Another big name has been announced for the MadSoul music festival happening here in early March: Grammy winner and Hamilton star Lin-Manuel Miranda.

Miranda joins an eclectic lineup of performers and speakers for the day that includes Muna, Melanie Faye, Kaelin Ellis, Maddy Barker, Venture Motel, I Met a Yeti, Palomino Blond, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Rep. Justin Jones, Rep. Anna Eskamani and Brandon Wolf.

Miranda will be introduced by a local student choir before giving a speech on the dual importance of civic engagement and music and the arts in his life.

Orlando's U.S. Rep Maxwell Frost — who started the event with friends Niyah Lowell and Chris Murie — has resurrected MadSoul for a day that mixes music and progressive politics at Loch Haven Park.

“Lin-Manuel’s own story is a testament to the beauty that can happen when people combine the arts with activism, which is at the heart of what MadSoul is all about. I can’t wait for the people of Central Florida to hear from him in person.," said Frost in a press statement.

MadSoul happens Saturday, March 2, at 2 p.m. at Loch Haven Park. Tickets are on sale through MadSoul's website.
