| Levi's + The Fader + CMJ Not to sound like a broken record, but CMJ is coming CMJ is coming CMJ is coming!!! If you've been to SXSW, you've probably stopped into The Fort which is one of the hottest spots to chill and checkout some of the best emerging bands at the festival, brought to you by The Fader and Levi's. Well, guess what folks? There ain't much in the world that we can't get our hands on here in New York and The Fader and Levi's are bring The Fort here for all of us who haven't been lucky enough to check it out at SXSW. It runs from 10.22 to 10.25.08. "The Levi's/FADER Fort NYC will be located on the Lower East Side with performances including Friendly Fires, Passion Pit, Crystal Stilts, The Muslims, Sebastien Grainger, and School of Seven Bells." "The Fort will host bands daily, from 2:30 to 9 p.m. Mr. Brainwash is also set to provide an art instillation for the venue. MBW is known for creating street art, often consisting of provocative depictions of modern cultural icons." Click here to see the full list of bands, dates, and showtimes. I was at the space over the weekend and it's a hot venue: a Chelsea like gallery space with two floors with plenty of room to chill out upstairs. Just like The Fort in Austin, this event is hush hush and you've gotta be on the list to get in. I can't tell you the address, but I'll give you a hint: it's on Bowery south of Houson. Good luck! |
