My Morning Jacket, Pavement, MGMT Set For Sasquatch! Festival
My Morning Jacket, MGMT, Vampire Weekend, LCD Soundsystem and the previously announced Pavement will take the stage at this year’s Sasquatch! Music Festival, invading Washington State’s Gorge on Memorial Day weekend, May 29th to 31st. The National, Ween, Public Enemy, Massive Attack, She and Him and the Hold Steady will also perform at this year’s fest, which revealed its lineup last night at special concert featuring performances by recent Breaking act Surfer Blood and Atlas Sound.
Look back at 2009’s giant Sasquatch! in photos.
In fact, this year’s Sasquatch! festival lineup reads like a Who’s Who of past Rolling Stone Breaking artists: The xx, Dam-Funk, Mayer Hawthorne, Girls, Dirty Projectors, the Low Anthem and many more. As always, Sasquatch! will also feature a handful of Pacific Northwest artists like Band of Horses, Quasi, Minus the Bear and the New Pornographers. If that wasn’t enough, Sasquatch! organizers promise additional artist announcements in the coming weeks. Tickets for the Northwest’s hottest festival go on sale this Saturday, February 20th at the Sasquatch! official Website.
The 2009 Sasquatch! featured performances by Kings of Leon, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Nine Inch Nails, TV on the Radio and Jane’s Addiction. Check out RS’ recap of the 2009 fest, and view the entire 2010 lineup below:
