The lineup for the KEXP’s annual Concerts at the Mural has been revealed and just like the station’s playlist, the lineup features a pretty broad mix of musical genres.
The first show — No Depression Night on Aug. 3 — includes a heavy dose of folk and American as well as Guerrilla Candy favorites Fly Moon Royalty. That show is followed the next week by a bill headlined by Brad that also includes The Young Evils, another favorite at Guerrilla Candy HQ. The third week of the series includes local heavies Absolute Monarchs (who released one of the 10 must-own records of the year, so far) and the reunited Love Battery. The series is capped by a diverse show that includes BOAT, Reptar and Fresh Espresso.
All of the concerts are free and they take place at the Mural Amphitheatre on Seattle Center grounds during the first four Fridays in August. Here’s the full lineup and schedule:
