Asbury Park ATP Festival coming Sept 2012

ALL TOMORROW'S PARTIES MUSIC FESTIVAL SEPTEMBER 21-23, 2012

All Tomorrow's Parties, a promoter which has presented music festivals primarily in England but also worldwide, will present the I'll Be Your Mirror USA 2012 music festival for the second straight year in Asbury Park, NJ.

The full weekend lineup is still being confirmed but Saturday Sept 22nd is mostly set. The 22nd will have a curator in the form of Greg Dulli of The Afghan Whigs. It is custom for the curator to personally pick the bands which will perform that day. The 22nd will include The Afghan Whigs, Sharon Van Etten, Mark Lanegan Band (former lead singer of the Screaming Trees) and others. See link below for current list of performers.

As a side note, the organization that is presenting the festival is All Tomorrow's Parties. The actual name of the festival is I'll Be Your Mirror. Where do these names come from? These would be the names of a July 1966 single from the Velvet Underground (All Tomorrow's Parties) and the B-side (I'll Be Your Mirror).

Tickets go on sale today - Feb 27, 2012.
