Capitol Hill Block Party Announces Partial 2017 Lineup
Nada Favorites Run the Jewels, Angel Olsen, and Wolf Parade Among Artists Who Will Perform
Today, those crazy kids at Capitol Hill Block Party (CHBP) announced a partial lineup for their 2017 festival, which is scheduled for July 21-23 in Seattle. For the uninitiated, CHBP is a three day celebration of music and arts that pits national headliners alongside a carefully-curated list of emerging local artists each summer in the heart of the city’s most artistic neighborhood.
Headliners this year will include hip-hop super group Run The Jewels, electronic DJ Diplo, and indie-folk band Lord Huron. As always, we’re most curious to see the full listing of local bands that’s due out later this year. Seattle acts included in this first announcement include youthful garage rockers Naked Giants and delightful upstarts SLOUCHER, who’s recasting of Elliott Smith’s gentle indie pop caused local music tastemakers to cream their collective shorts last year.
“We are showcasing so many fantastic artists this year to ring in our 21st anniversary,” said Capitol Hill Block Party Owner and Producer Jason Lajeunesse. “Run The Jewels dropped an incredible record in January, and as a fan of Killer Mike’s political voice, I can’t think of a better artist to be performing for our community this year.”
Single-day tickets and three-day passes for #CHBP2017 are available now beginning at $60 and $135, respectively.
