Joining the ranks of emerging artist-focused music festivals like SxSW in Austin and Treefort Music Festival in Boise is Upstream Music Fest — a new, three day smorgasbord of artists playing throughout the Pioneer Square neighborhood in Seattle, Washington.
Running May 11 – May 13, Upstream Music Fest promises stellar performances from local Seattleites — think Deep Sea Diver and Polyrhythmics — plus global acts like Flying Lotus and AlunaGeorge. And with a lineup of more than 300 artists, chosen by “guest curators” from the likes of KEXP, Sub Pop Records, Artist Home and Kill Rock Stars, you know this is only the tip of the iceberg.
We’re thrilled to see some of our artist community represented in the lineup. Here’s a list of those Marmo artists who will be taking the stage during the festival — learn more about them, check out their performance schedule, and enjoy.
