I’m finally glad to announce the awesome addition of John Barrett’s BASS DRUM Of DEATH (oxford, ms) to the line-up of Bro Fest 2012. They were on my initial wish-list of acts when I started assembling the show last Fall. If you’ve been a fan of us, we previously hosted BASS DRUM Of DEATH at the Lounge (or was it the Nightmare) and more recently with Japandroids in October. Their album Get Found (inflated/fat possum) was on my top 11 albums of the year featured on dumbing of the america blog). This band, just like the rest of the lineup, will not disappoint!!
Also: we’ll be adding a local stage in the afternoon at La Grange!! more details to come.
Also x 2: Since it occurs the day after Bro Fest, Cover for the ALCEST / HULL / MUTILATION RITES show will be 1/2 off with your Bro Fest 2012 wrist band.
