Pickathon has just released the second round of confirmed bands for the 2024 Festival, coming August 1-4 to Pendarvis Farm in Happy Valley.
Beyond the major headliners announced in March 2024, including Courtney Barnett, Elephant Revival, Durand Jones, and Bonnie "Prince" Billy, the festival calls on many of today's buzzy emerging stars that music fans have come to expect from Pickathon.
Among the most notable new additions to the 2024 lineup are Pitchfork's Best New Music winner Kara Jackson, Seattle's jazz drumming phenom Kassa Overall, and Portland's folk favorite, Anna Tivel.
Pickathon also pulls together some of the Pacific Northwest's finest artists from local music scenes across the region with bands like True Loves, Seattle's funk and soul hit makers; Johnny Franco and The Barbaras who are rising through Portland's breakout country music scene; as well as Pahua, New Constellations, Color Green, and Will Paquin.
Pickathon always stacks its lineups with an array of artistic gems including fast-rising folk songstress Jess Williamson, "New York's Next Great Band" (Variety), Geese and folk-pop bad boy Chance Peña. With the festival's dedication to presenting eclectic artists performing a multitude of genres across the four days, music fans will be thrilled this year with the inclusion of lo-fi's Joanna Sternberg, New Orleans brass ensemble The Soul Rebels, and folktronica duo CocoRosie.
A new generation of singular voices is especially well-represented at Pickathon 2024. Along with newly added Kara Jackson and Johnny Franco, this year features 17-year-old Jake Kohn, Portland's own indie star Searows (24), and acoustic songstress Billie Marten (24) who all signify a fresh era of music, both at Pickathon and in the music industry at large.
Pickathon redefines the music festival experience as an immersive, choose-your-own-adventure, where fans discover music, arts, and culture fantastically integrated into the natural wonders of Pendarvis Farm (12 miles outside of Portland, OR). Music at Pickathon is highly curated, bringing together the deep cuts and rising stars of every genre alongside groundbreaking lineups in body & wellness, comedy, visual art, literature, family programming, artisanal food, craft beer, spirits, and more. Pickathon pioneered the zero-waste, green festival and continually sets new standards of sustainability. If you know, you know. If you've never been, you'll understand the minute you set foot on the Farm. Pickathon is where we go to fall in love, every year, all over again.
