Don Giovanni Records has announced a one off festival this September.
Taking place at the Convention Center in Asbury Park, NJ, New Alternative Music Festival will not have sponsors, or feature artists with ties to major labels or corporate distribution companies.
“This is a pro-weirdo event held in direct opposition to the apolitical sludge that has come to pass as ‘indie’ and that has nothing to do with operating independently,” a press release explains. “Where many festival bills are structured to reflect critical acclaim, the NAMF lineup is meant to reflect a community. In addition to making great music, many of these artists are involved because they are peers, tour mates, and friends.”
The line-up for the event features a reunited P.S. Eliot, Girlpool, Trophy Wife, Screaming Females, California X, Ought, Radiator Hospital and Laura Stevenson.
New Alternative Music Festival takes place between September 16th and 18th.
