Northside Festival Sunday Schedule
The four-day Northside Festival comes to a close today with another hundred bands or so playing all over Williamsburg and beyond, including pay outdoor and free indoor shows. Below are our picks for the final day of this adventurous and exciting festival, with one major warning: Don’t count on the free trolley to take you to Newtown Barge Park if you’re in any kind of rush or don’t mind missing much of whatever group you’re planning on seeing.
Elvis Perkins in Dearland, Newtown Barge Park, 3:30: Indie darling will be sending his fond regards to doomsday with his inventive folk rock.
Harper Blynn, Public Assembly, 4:30: The old Pete and J will propel the loneliest generation into centrifugal motion with their pure pop at Public Assembly.
Shark?, Bar Matchless, 6:00: Brooklyn four-piece played great impromptu gig at yesterday’s street fair on Bedford and should light up Bar Matchless tonight.
Les Savy Fav, Newtown Barge Park, 8:30: The sweat should descend on the crowd as well as a nearly naked Tim Harrington at this show by the experimental Brooklyn punk band.
Savoir Adore, Coco 66, 9:00: Brooklynites know their way around funky grooves and sweet melodies.
MiniBoone, Bar Matchless, 10:00: Local boys know how to let loose for a wild grand finale.
Islands, Music Hall of Williamsburg, 11:00: Nick Diamonds and former Islander Jamie Thompson lead this glamorous Canadian group that ramps it up at their live shows.
