I very much consider New York my second home, and CMJ is the best way to celebrate Autumn through a week’s worth of nightclub and venue hoppings all over Manhattan and across from the East River into beautiful Brooklyn.

1000+ artists/bands will come play for the music industry and the fans alike for the 32nd edition of the festival which is being held this year from October 16-20.

The big names announced so far or at least the ones with some amount of buzz going for them:

The Presets, The Walkmen, The Mountain Goats, Kimbra, GZA, OFF!,
King Tuff, Killer Mike, Com Truise, DIIV, Pig Destroyer, The Jezabels, Electric Guest, Poolside, Daughn Gibson, Robert DeLong, Icona Pop, Emma Louise, Mac DeMarco, Prince Rama, Young Magic, MS MR, Sundress, The Soul Rebels, Twerps.
