Sasquatch! Music Festival 2012 Lineup Announcement from Sasquatch Festival on Vimeo . Sasquatch Festival in Washington at the Gorge will be held on Memorial Day Weekend this year. Packed with electronica, indie, chillwave, and some hip hop it looks like it will be a stellar holiday weekend. The more I look at line up the more clear it becomes; this was a thought out and well put together festival. I hope more festivals follow in the footstep of Sasquatch! [...]
Between tomorrow night's performance on Saturday Night Live and their multiple Grammy nominations , it's a big two weeks for Justin Vernon and Bon Iver . Consequently, Vernon and Co. are doing a lot of press, which has led to a lot of choice quotes regarding a number of different things. First and foremost: Bon Iver will not be performing at the Grammys. In an interview with Billboard , Vernon said the band turned down the opportunity to play after being told they'd have to share the stage [...]

After last year's Grammys, when Arcade Fire performed dodging Mat Hoffman bike-tricks and then immediately won the Album Of The Year award, the award show has a high standard to live up to when it comes to ridiculous and implausible but kind of awesome indie-rock performances. But even though Bon Iver got nominated for a boatload of Grammys and s howed up in a Grammy ad , we won't get a chance to see Justin Vernon singing "Holocene" from the bottom of Tony Hawk's halfpipe. As it turns out, Bon Iver isn't performing at this year's ceremony. [...]
What joy we festival lovers received today! Aye, the line-ups for two of the best festivals of the summer, Sasquatch and Primavera Sound, were released, and are they ever a gift from the festival deities on high. Both are absolutely stuffed with bands that we love and have been geeking out over for months if not years. Sasquatch, one of our favorite line-ups from last year as well, boasts artists that will sound breathtaking in the Gorge. The dreams you have about seeing Bon Iver under the stars and surrounded by landscapes as picturesque [...]

Justin Vernon of Bon Iver has revealed in his interview with USA Today that his band's next album may take as long as five years to flesh out. Said Vernon: I don't have any songs written yet. I'm guessing three years. But it could be five. It could be only one more. It just depends when the songs come about. I sort of have to wait till they reveal themselves. Well, damn. His next LP better be mind-blowing. Let's hope this songs "reveal themselves" soon, because some of [...]
The Pacific Northwest Festival we've all been waiting for has just announced a killer lineup! Sasquatch takes place at the Gorge on May 25th - 28th.
It's not what you think.The real reason that Bon Iver won't be performing during the Grammy Awards on February 12 has nothing to do with an ugly poster and a dusty promotional commercial. According t
The Sasquatch Music Festival has released their 2012 lineup, and as usual, it's a doozy....

Sasquatch! , held every year in the Pacific Northwest, isn't regarded as one of the bigger music festivals in the United States, but is usually regarded as one of the best. Last year, festival organizers enlisted the talents of the Foo Fighters , Wilco , Death Cab for Cutie , Modest Mouse , The Flaming Lips , and lot more over the course of four (yes, four) days. While that may be fairly impressive for what isn't regarded as one of the year's bigger events, this year's does boast a fairly heavy - [...]
Hasta 5 años podría tardar lo nuevo de Bon Iver . Así lo ha dicho Justin Vernon en declaraciones para USA Today , donde indica que por supuesto no se han escrito canciones aún, y que el grupo se centra en la promoción del que ha sido su segundo y aclamado álbum que lleva por nombre Bon Iver . El trabajo estuvo entre los mejores de 2011 para muchos, y no es raro que por ello no dejen de preguntarles… ¿Cuándo habrá un tercer disco? Justin Vernon habla de [...]

No one likes a collaboration like Bon Iver likes a collaboration; from Kanye West to Flaming Lips (skirting over that James Blake one) and now Alicia Keys. Talking to USA Today Justin Vernon explained his forthcoming plans to work with Alicia Keys among other names; "I have a big idea to do an American songbook of the greatest women singers. There are so many: Casey [Dienel] from White Hinterland, Bonnie Raitt, Alicia... [I'd make] a one-off charity album to have an excuse to work with a bunch of people that I'd choose to work with, all [...]
