Fools - The Dodos
Last year, I tried and failed to head up to Chicago for 2008's three-day Pitchfork Music Festival. The lineup was an indie rock lovers dream -- how could you expect any less from a Pitchfork.com-sponsored event? -- but I simply couldn't get it together in time to actually go. This year, I may just have to scrape the bottom of my cash barrel; while no artists have been confirmed as yet for 2009, the lineup usually includes bands that Pitchfork has been following/raving about/writing about throughout the year. Based on acts that played previous years, Pitchfork's Top 50 albums of 2008, and reviews of albums that have come out so far this year, I'm going to hypothesize the following: Fleet Foxes, Portishead, Cut Copy, M83, Deerhunter, Erykah Badu, Los Campesinos!, Santogold, Beiruit, Lykke Li, Antony and the Johnsons, Andrew Bird, Trail of Dead, Black Lips, and TV on the Radio.
Here's the actual press release:
The 2009 Pitchfork Music Festival will be held in Chicago's Union Park Friday, July 17-Sunday, July 19. This year marks the fourth anniversary of the festival - and the fifth time Pitchfork has presented a music festival in Union Park. The three-day event will once again showcase a wide range of global artists on three stages, with a focus on forward thinking programming at a reasonable price. Beginning with the music and continuing through all facets of its production, the Pitchfork Music Festival is dedicated to providing both attendees and musicians an overwhelmingly positive, comfortable, and fun experience.
In years past the Pitchfork Music Festival has proven to be the best event to see indie stars on the rise. Over its five-year festival history, Pitchfork has invited artists such as Vampire Weekend, Band of Horses, the Decemberists, the Hold Steady, Fleet Foxes, Bon Iver, Animal Collective, Andrew Bird, Girl Talk, the National, Grizzly Bear, Diplo, and Cut Copy to perform at key, ascendant points in their careers. The festival has also presented a wide range of established and widely loved artists that appeal to a diverse audience, such as Yoko Ono, Public Enemy, Sonic Youth, De La Soul, Spoon, Dinosaur Jr., Clipse, Mastodon, Ghostface and Raekwon, Cat Power, Iron & Wine, the Silver Jews, Jarvis Cocker, Os Mutantes, Klaxons, and Slint.
An independently run, consistently sold-out festival, Pitchfork attracts more than 45,000 fans of all ages from 45 states and 11 countries. With over 50 individual vendors, as well as specialty fairs, the Pitchfork Music Festival offers attendees a wide range of activities on top of its stellar musical program. Additionally, the fest not only supports local businesses and the local economy, but also promotes the Chicago arts community as a whole.
Pitchfork Media is the premier destination for music criticism, news, features, and audio/video content. With more than 1.9 million unique readers per month and over 20 million page views, Pitchfork has earned one of the internet's most loyal followings and a reputation as the music world's primary tastemaker.
Tickets for the 2009 Pitchfork Music Festival go on sale Friday, March 13. Stay tuned for band announcements and additional information.
