Sub Pop, the label behind Nirvana and numerous other Northwest acts will be festivaling it up this year on July 12th and 13th. I can’t find information out on where exactly, but the lineup is full of Sub Pop artists, past and present. The most notable for Sub Pop would be current folk parody band ‘Flight of the Conchords.’ Grammy winning duo of Jemaine Clement and Bret Mckenzie are soon to release a full length CD, and have quite the touring schedule ahead of them during the late spring and summer.

Though unable to find the venue, tickets are 30 bucks for one day, 50 bucks for both. Other current artists that are gonna rock your socks - Fleet Foxes, Foals, Iron & Wine. They also have some past acts coming in that you’re going to enjoy. Green River, Mudhoney, The Fluid, and Red Red Meat will also be appearing.

The Northwest is sure shaping up to be one hell of a place for festivals this year. With Bumbershoot, Sasquatch, and the Capitol Hill Block Party, any music fan is sure to find a festival that suits them.
