Cultivating Collaboration at the 13th Annual Eagle Rock Music Festival:

Los Angeles City Councilmember Jose Huizar and Center for the Arts, Eagle Rock present the 13th Annual Eagle Rock Music Festival, the yearly music festival with a unique and independent neighborhood vibe. The festival will take place on Colorado Blvd. between Eagle Rock Blvd. and Argus Dr. in Eagle Rock, on Saturday October 1, 2011, from 4:00-11:00pm.

The Center’s innovative programming is showcased throughout the year, culminating with the Eagle Rock Music Festival. The festival is built upon strong partnerships with sponsors, programming partners, musicians and the community. Center for the Arts, Eagle Rock collaborates with Dublab, FYF Fest, Low End Theory, Kingsize Soundlabs, The Ship Studios, LA Record, KOXY Radio, Razorcake, and Zocaloc to create the diverse lineup the Eagle Rock Music Festival is known for. Musicians perform at 10 unique venues along Colorado Blvd. that include auto shops, formal stages, and even a motel balcony. The growing line-up of artists and a complete schedule will be announced in early September on the Center’s website: www.cfaer.org as well as the Eagle Rock Music Festival blog and Facebook.

The festival will also feature a family friendly kids corner on Caspar Ave. with activities including learning to play the ukulele, comic book making, clay projects and more. The programs, all taught by the Center’s instructors, will give a sneak peek of the Fall Education programming at Center for the Arts, Eagle Rock.

Foodies rejoice! The festival will offer an eclectic blend of international foods at the Eagle Rock Farmers Market as well as a variety of food trucks including the Poutine Truck, Greasy Weiner, Slice Truck, Fresh Fries and more. This adds to the diverse array of delicious restaurants along the festival route such as the just opened Halong Bay, fresh & flavorful Four Café, music festival venues Colombo’s Italian Steakhouse and Camilo’s California Bistro, and the always popular Coffee Table & Lounge, Taco Spot, and Oinkster!

[rag and bone]

Oh, October. You're too good. What a great way to start off what should prove to be quite the memorable month!

[heyeric]

Plenty of after party shows and it's nice to be able to booze and walk the streets, always a good time.

[heyeric]

coming together. anyone go to this annually?

Eagle Rock Music Festival
Lineup is looking good! Can't wait to share it with all of you!

[darksideofkaos.]

Yup. I have been going since 2006. First year I went I volunteered and they had me work security on the "main stage." I was only 16 at the time but I got a free shirt and got to meet all the bands so it was fun.

According to a post on Low End Theory's FB page:

Eagle Rock Music Festival line-up will be announced later today

[heyeric]

Now according to Low End Theory,

Actually - sorry folks - looking like we can't talk about it until Monday now. Stay tuned...

[darksideofkaos.]

Hmm still nothing even though they said monday... Hoping something gets released by the end of the week.

[heyeric]

Low End's Lineup is very similar to last year

[ZachTheEskimo]

The email I got says Flying Lotus is playing as well.

EDIT: It's listed now, never mind.

To those of you who are more aware of undergroundy music, who on this lineup should I check out?

[darksideofkaos.]

Well this should be a lot of fun... The low end stage is going to be great minus the fact it will be way too crowded.

[TallGuyCM]

To those of you who are more aware of undergroundy music, who on this lineup should I check out?

This.

[Drinkey McDrinkerstein]

The Low End Theory stage is the only one whose acts i recognize, but they're not even people I listen to.

[prickly]

Whooooaa. My cousin is playing this. Yes these bands are on the low end of the spectrum, popularity wise.

[GolfWang]

Mia Doi Todd and Gangi are cool.

I wish I could go to this. Last year was a blast. The Low End stage is even better this year.

[blazin]

To those of you who are more aware of undergroundy music, who on this lineup should I check out?

[ZachTheEskimo]

I said undergroundy music. Everybody that knows music knows Health.

[suprefan]

This can be sig worthy.

[blazin]

I said undergroundy music. Everybody that knows music knows Health.

Yeah, they're SO mainstream...

[ZachTheEskimo]

Frankly, I'm just a little bit offended at your little faith in my knowledge of Health.

[suprefan]

Frankly, I'm just a little bit offended at your little faith in my knowledge of Health.

You did just make a post that can be top 5 worthy ''most idiotic post of the year'' just now.

[ZachTheEskimo]

I'm honored.

And yes, I realize in retrospect how idiotic the statement was.

[ficklecycle]

Sweet.

[ZachTheEskimo]

Joyce Manor has been added according to FYF.

[WhyTheLongFace]

Any recommendations of acts not on the Low End Theory stage?

I can't wait for JonWayne

Summer Vacation is rad. Also, Joyce Manor is supposed to be playing, and they're awesome as well.

[Bomboclat]

Hopefully the sound system for the low end theory stage is a bit more than it was last year. I feel that their issue last yer though was that they didnt expect so many people to show up. In 2009 it was a pretty small crowd, last year it got pretty massive! Hopefully they can accomidate the growing crowd sizes for their stage and make the sound system a bit more massive (and hopefully without causing bleed onto the other stages).

Sad they didnt bring Free The Robots back, but glad they added Tokimonsta! This year is going to be awesome!

[ZachTheEskimo]

Joyce Manor has confirmed they're playing at 6.

Pure Filth is providing the sound system this year.
