Now comes the news that director Jim Jarmusch will curate the event’s Sunday lineup. Among the first bands that Jarmusch has selected are The Brian Jonestown Massacre, Raekwon, Girls, Wooden Shjips, The Black Angels and Vivian Girls. In addition to those acts, Sonic Youth, Explosions In The Sky, The Breeders and The Books will all take the stage for Saturday’s festivities. ATP New York will take place over the course of Labor Day weekend this September at Kutsher’s Country Club in upstate New York. Tickets, which cost $250 for a three-night pass, are currently on-sale now.
