BK Mag’s Northside Festival Mixtape #6

By Jeff Klingman

It’s all come down to this…Brooklyn’s Northside Festival is next week! Damn. A moment of silence for the concept of anticipation. A hearty fuck yeah to the events to come. As this is the last of our weekly mixes, we’re giving you a jam-packed, super-sized greatest hits mix of some of our favorite artists playing Northside Festival 2018. If you’re looking to deep dive into the stranger corners of the festival lineup, vol. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, you absolutely should. (And hey, there’s even more than that. Our festival schedule is live to peruse as well.)

Liz Phair! Parquet Courts! Shamir! Clams Casino! Deerhoof! Snail Mail! All your faves and faves to be, aligned in one spot. If the show has tickets avail, you’ll find a link below to make one yours. If the show’s sold out, may we direct you here to purchase a festival badge that could get you in*, + many more. (*Subject to venue capacity and, like, the laws of physical space and time.)

So, here we go. Over 350 bands about to take Brooklyn by storm. Study up. Get some rest. See you so, so soon.
