Maine’s annual KAHBANG MUSIC + ARTS FESTIVAL turns five years old this year, and according to the flyer posted below, it wants a pony for its birthday. That seems like a reasonable gesture, since KahBang this summer will be giving us a lamb (one Lady Lamb the Beekeeper), a dog (that’s Dr. Dog, to you and me), and a tiger (the elusive Box Tiger variety from Toronto).
That’s just the animal division for the August 8 to 11 get-together up in Bangor, which doesn’t even get to performing artists like Oberhofer, Lights, Lucius, the Knocks, Paper Diamond, and a solid selection of Massachusetts bands taking the trek up north.
Repping the Bay State and all our issues are Mean Creek, Herra Terra, Aer, the Bynars, and Jet Black Sunrise. Vanyaland BFFs Black Light Dinner Party, who formed in Boston a few years ago but now suffer for their art in New York City, are also on the bill.
Check out the full lineup via the flyer below, and head’s up: tickets are a pretty reasonable $35 for a weekend pass, and are on sale now.
