Basilica Soundscape 2017
The Basilica Soundscape festival returns September 15-17 at Basilica Hudson. And the initial lineup is out -- it's below.
Event blurbage:
Basilica SoundScape, a carefully curated weekend that's been called "the antiÂfestival" by various publications for offering of a thoughtful mix of music, visual art, and literature, is co-curated by Brandon Stosuy (The Creative Independent), Basilica Co-Founder and Director Melissa Auf der Maur and Basilica Co-Founder Tony Stone. This year they welcome back previous BSS Creative Director Michael Renaud to handle all aspects of visual design for the event and have added the talents of a special guest curator, Jenn Pelly, editor at Pitchfork, and author of a forthcoming book on the Raincoats.
