ATP NY adds more bands to their lineup
Music News | Mar 25th, 2010
You think by living by Kutsher’s Country Club in Monticello, NY that I would love that their has been a music festival here for last few years. I guess if I knew who any of these bands were I’d be more excited about it. Sure I know who Iggy Pop is but the rest? Eh. I think I’d rather sit home and not deal with the traffic. Maybe I’m just not hip to the kids music these days. But lots of people will like this festival. More bands & artists have been added like Hope Sandoval & The Warm I’ventions, Tortoise, Bardo Pond, Beak > (featuring Geoff Barrow of Portishead), Sleepy Sun, and Avi Buffalo. Read the press release below for all the info:
