Indie-centric festival marks its 15th year with a roster that includes Ted Leo and the Pharmacists, Autolux, Sebadoh, Black Angels, Midlake, John Vanderslice, Josh Ritter, and Vic Chesnutt.
Noise Pop, the annual indie music festival in San Francisco, began taking the wraps off its 2007 lineup this week, with both veterans and up-and-comers in the mix.
The festival, celebrating its 15th anniversary this year, will take place February 27-March 4 at venues throughout the San Francisco Bay Area.
The early lineup includes a reunion of the original lineup of Sebadoh, as well as performances from Ted Leo and the Pharmacists, Autolux, the Black Angels, French Kicks, Midlake, Clinic, John Vanderslice, Vic Chesnutt, Jolie Holland, and Josh Ritter, Earlimart, Ghostland Observatory, Hella, Macromantics, Pop Levi, Richard Swift, Seawolf, So Many Dynamos, and Okkervil River's Will Sheff.
The companion Noise Pop Film Festival, now in its 8th year, will feature Noise Pop: The Documentary, a film chronicling the eclectic festival's existence over the last six years and featuring a wide array of live footage and interviews with indie rock acts as they perform and hang out in San Francisco.
The event will also feature the two-day Noise Pop Expo, which will include panel discussions, a local indie trunk sale, rock poster show, and special acoustic performances.
Noise Pop is selling badges for $150 each on its Web site through January 15. The price jumps to $175 afterwards. Badges grant you access to all Noise Pop 2007 shows and events, including the opening-night party, after-parties, the Noise Pop Film Festival, and The Noise Pop Expo. Individual show tickets will be on sale at all participating venues and their online ticketing partners starting tomorrow.
