![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Traditional trio Mountain Man, seen here at NYC's Mercury Lounge in May, from Bennington, Vt., is one of the non-Wilco bands on the festival schedule. I won’t list all the bands in the festival lineup (download the full schedule here), but highlights among the non-Wilco bands include: Sir Richard Bishop, The Books, Vetiver, Mavis Staples, The Baseball Project, Mountain Man and Brenda. (Festival details and links after the jump.) If you can’t make it to the festival, or even if you’re there, be sure to check back for updates on Will You Miss Me When I’m Gone? and our Twitter feed. But this event is special, because Wilco has managed to line up a place where all its side projects and friends’ bands can play too. Starting at 8 on Friday night, the complex will be filled with thousands of Wilco fans intent on seeing their favorite band’s only East Coast show of the summer. While the galleries will be open to non-festival goers that weekend, visitors who are looking for a contemplative time in the galleries and easy parking should visit us on a different weekend or arrive as early in the day as possible. We anticipate that more than 5000 people will attend the Wilco Solid Sound Festival August 14 + 15. Just want to visit the galleries? We recommend you come a different weekend. While the museum is no stranger to hosting music events and other performing arts, the Solid Sound Festival is likely the first event that turns over the entire place - in fact, a good chunk of downtown North Adams, to a single event. ![]()
