In the first of a series of announcements, Riverfest officials have released the names of three headlining musical acts scheduled to play at this year's festival.

Hank Williams Jr., Buckcherry and Salt-N-Pepa will be among the entertainment at the annual downtown Little Rock music, arts and food festival, according to a statement on the Riverfest website.
