BitchTapes: Pickathon 2012 Preview

Music post by Kristin Rogers Brown on August 3, 2012 - 12:11pm; tagged music festivals, Pickathon, Portland.

I'm pleased as punch to be headed out to Pickathon, an inde and roots music festival all-weekend camp-a-thon in Portland. From this year's lineup, at least 15 bands are women or feature women prominently, including their big headliner for the festival, Neko Case. This week's Bitchtapes gives you a sampling of the folk, roots, and jams of Pickathon. If you can't make the festival, Seattle's KEXP will be livecasting the festival—check out their broadcast schedule so you can plan your viewing accordingly! Track list and more Pickathon after the jump!

Pickathon 2012 from BitchTapes on 8tracks.
