| About Midwest Popfest |
|
Open up just about any popular book on '60s rock
music, and you find the story of how the Monterey Pop
Festival (1967) changed the face of music as we know
it. Introducing us to household names like the Who,
Jimi Hendrix and Janis Joplin, who before they were
legends, shared the same stage for the first time over
a three day festival.
With that blueprint in mind, The Vaudeville Mews will
bring some of the finest up and coming acts in the
world to Des Moines, Iowa on July 13-15th. What are we
calling this 3-day experience? The Midwest Popfest!
Like Monterey's headliner the Mamas and Papas we have
chosen a vital rock band who at this moment in history
means so much to the rock n roll community, Saddle
Creek Record's own, CURSIVE.
Along with Cursive, thirty other acts will create that
same exciting atmosphere with performances on two
stages over 3 days creating one exciting moment in
music history. But unlike Monterey, we plan on making
this an annual event! So don't miss the festival that
starts it all off, the first ever Midwest Popfest.
