If you live in Louisville, then you probably already know that the 8th annual Forecastle Festival is going down this weekend (July 10th – 12th) at the Riverfront Belvedere. Each year, thousands of people turn out for this event that aims to fuse music and art with activism. In addition to performances by the likes of Widespread Panic and The Black Crowes, this year we have an RV-endorsed stage dedicated to electronic music on Saturday (the 11th).
The lineup for this Saturday is nothing short of superb! We’ve got our own Sam Gracie opening up with local DJ Ben Alan, followed by sets from Deepak Sharma, Hac Le, Paul Dailey, Dory, Three, and Brian Neckel! Obviously, this is not an event you want to miss if there’s any way you can be there. For more information or to buy tickets, just go to forecastlefest.com.
After we’ve finished listening to great music and dancing all day, we’re going to make our way over to the RV Forecastle Afterparty…which also promises to be super hot! The party will take place from 11pm to 4am at one of my favorite spots in Louisville, called Asiatique. This venue is an elegant, upscale Asian fusion restaurant/lounge. It has a sophisticated, modern decor that really lends itself to a quality electronic music event, and they have a bar that serves outstanding drinks.
We’ve arranged to bring our own sound system in for the event, and we’re asking our Forecastle DJs to get on the decks again. Three is going to headline the afterparty, with help from Dory, Hac Le, Deepak Sharma, Paul Dailey, Ben Alan, and Sam Gracie.
If you’re anywhere near Louisville, I would highly recommend that you make it out to this afterparty! For more details or to RSVP, go to our Facebook events page at http://snipurl.com/mdc56.
I hope to see you out this Saturday!
