Solid Sound, Wilco’s Music and Arts Festival, returns to MASS MoCA in North Adams, Massachusetts June 28-30, 2019. Today, the festival announces its lineup and its plan to release a limited quantity of single day tickets.
This year, SSF is pleased to welcome Courtney Barnett, The Feelies, Tortoise, John Hodgman’s Comedy Cabaret, Jonathan Richman, Clipping, Cate Le Bon, The Minus 5, Lonnie Holley, and much more. Solid Sound Festival is never just about the music, and this year will feature Authors in Discussion, presented by Penguin Random House, a sound installation from Genelec, a Reverb music auction, axe throwing, a Ghost Town screen printing workshop, and of course, MASS MoCA — more than 250,000 sq. ft. of galleries including long-term installations by James Turrell, Laurie Anderson, Sol LeWitt, Jenny Holzer, and Anselm Kiefer. In addition to the expansive museum galleries of MASS MoCA, the festival includes a fully programmed comedy stage, outdoor activities that take advantage of the natural environment of northern Berkshire County, an engaging roster of family activities, local food, craft beer and cider, and more. Finally, it would not be Solid Sound Festival if it didn’t feature two headline sets from Wilco, the band’s first U.S. performances in nearly two years!
Solid Sound Festival is making a limited number of single day tickets available, which will go on sale Thursday, February 28th at 12PM EST. Single day lineups will be announced at the same time. Because of the limited quantity of these tickets, we do expect them to sell out quickly, so if you’re only able to join us for one day, don’t delay. Purchase weekend passes ($189) and single day tickets (Friday & Sunday – $74; Saturday – $129; Children 6-10 – $55) at solidsoundfestival.com.
