As the Big Ears Festival draws nigh, the anticipation turns to headliners and mobile applications.
We already know who's playing, and a new app gives us the latest news on the thinking man's Bonnaroo.
Before the full schedule announcement coming Tuesday, March 18, the higher ups there in Knoxville, Tenn. share with us some specific details regarding our headliners.
At the Tennessee Theatre
Friday's headliners include Dean Wareham, Norwegian Nico-covering songstress Susanna and the epic John Cale. Saturday brings New York legends Television and Sunday is followed with the prolific Jonny Greenwood and Ensemble Signal--performing pieces from Steve Reich.
