?uestlove and the the rest of The Roots will take a break from the traveling hip-hop show Rock the Bells Tour to perform at Lansing’s own big-name blowout.

Festival organizers today announced that hip-hop heroes The Roots, as well as several supporting acts for the 10th annual Common Ground Festival.

The Grammy-wining and critically heralded live hip-hop group came up in the late ‘80s and early ‘90s in Philadelphia, making a name with the success of albums like 1999’s “Things Fall Apart” and 2002’s “Phrenology.” All Music Guide calls the band’s live shows among the “best in the business,” and since March “the legendary Roots crew” has been the house band on NBCs “Late Nate with Jimmy Fallon.”

The Roots have appeared in such movies as Spike Lee's "Bamboozled" (where they played the house band of a late night racist variety show) and Michel Gondry's "Dave Chappelle's Block Party."

Organizers say the band will take the stage opposite Stone Temple Pilots July 7 in what is shaping up to be a banner night for this year’s fest. (Although The Roots’ MySpace page says the group will be in Las Vegas that day; Common Ground officials said the band is confirmed to play in Lansing.)

Three other supporting acts were also announced for this year’s festival, including Hunter Brucks, Needtobreathe, Safetysuit and Parachute.

Brucks, a Michigan native who calls his music a mix of “Motor City soul” and “southern rock ‘n’ roll" (we think some of his songs sound like Bon Jovi singing country), will open for Sheryl Crow on July 9.

Opening for American Idol winner David Cook on July 10 will be South Carolina’s Needtobreathe, a soulful rock group whose tunes — which include “Shine On,” “Don’t Wait for Daylight,” and “Nothing Left to Lose” — have appeared in TV shows and movies.

Alt-rock group Safetysuit is making a name for itself on the popularity of high-charting hit “Someone Like You.” Safetysuit is touring with 3 Doors Down this summer, and will open for the band on July 12.

Also warming the crowd for 3 Doors Down will be Parachute, a band whose song “She is Love” you may recognize from VH1, or from a marketing campaign for skin care product maker Nivea.
