Rites of Spring comes eeking in...


Vanderbilt's yearly music festival, Rites of Spring, has a history of prevailing in hosting a fantastic diverse lineup, from local artists to indie favorites to old-time hits.  Among the clamors of "Who the hell's that band" two years ago, we had Clap Your Hands Say Yeah play an incredible show, and last year we had locals Bang Bang Bang as well as the Dynamites, a fantastic local funk group with Charles Walker as their charismatic frontman.  This year's lineup (happening April 18th and 19th) has yet to be officially released, but artists are starting to post our lovely little campus as a stop on their newly released tours, so we have two killer leaks already:

























I'm WAY excited about these two already.  The official list should be released mid-March.  If you're a Vandy student, count your blessings, since we get in for about thirty bucks cheaper than the general public, but still--the forty-dollar general admission ticket is starting to look like it might be worth its while.  More to come.
