Our Music Listings Editor, Charles, has been pumped up about Kindiefest 2012 for weeks…. and now- it’s finally here! Although Kindiefest is a family music conference for professionals, they have a special day for the public to see great musical performances. It’s a truly amazing opportunity to see some of the best performers in the country in an intimate space right here in Brooklyn.
From Charles:
Kindiefest draws the best new and established musicians from all across the country to talk shop, share experiences, and make music. I’ve been lucky enough to attend Kindiefest for the past two years and have heard some incredible performances. I was introduced to new artists who I was then able to recommend to you!
One of the special things about Kindiefest is that they include a public performance as part of the conference. Bands perform all day Sunday and you’ll be happy with whoever you see.
Here’s a list with links.
Jazz at Lincoln Center’s WeBop
SteveSongs
Big Bang Boom
Apple Brains
KBC Kids
Moona Luna
Bari Koral Family Rock Band
I’m excited because I don’t know many of the groups performing and will be introduced to some great new music. However, I do know Moona Luna and Bari Koral and they are two of my favorite local family bands. Make sure to see them!
Here’s a link to the Kindiefest website!
