Wilco debuts SOLID SOUND FESTIVAL, a three-day event of music art, comedy and more running from Aug 13-15 at the spectacular Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art in North Adams, MA. This is the band’s only East Coast performance of the summer. This new festival also presents individual performances by all the Wilco members’ side projects including Glenn Kotche’s On Fillmore, The Nels Cline Singers, The Autumn Defense featuring John Stirratt and Pat Sansone and Mikael Jorgensen’s Pronto.

SOLID SOUND FESTIVAL at MASS MoCA also plays host to additional musical performances, a fully programmed comedy stage, interactive installations and exhibits (including the Solid Sound Stompbox Station, an interactive guitar pedal exhibit with Wilco guitarist Nels Cline; a concert-poster silk screening demonstration; a drum and percussion workshop by Wilco drummer Glenn Kotche; and planned workshops by luthiers), plus film and video installations, dj’s and more. Festival attendees will have full access to the entire, stunning MASS MoCA campus, which incorporates 19 galleries across 100,000 square feet. MASS MoCA, a retrofitted 20th century textile mill, is the largest center for contemporary and visual arts in the U.S.
