The Slum-B-Q has become an annual right-of-passage for Columbus, OH. At the end of each summer we as a music-loving community get together to enjoy each other's company and bid adieu to the thick August air. Many of you already know that
Slum-B-Q 4 is all set for Saturday, September 8th inside and outside of the Carabar in Columbus, OH.
What you may not know is that throughout the course of the day we will be staggering over 20+ acts across three stages along with beer, grilled grub, an art bazaar, a P.I.G. basketball tournament and a friggin' dunk tank!
Our headliner,
White Rabbits (who have been compared favorably to the Walkmen and Les Savy Fav), recently performed on the Late Show with David Letterman. Their newest album,
Fort Nightly, was also named one of the top ten things "to do" this week by Entertainment Weekly Magazine. Pitchfork gave it an
8.1. They should be a lot of fun!
Best of all, the event is
FREE and ALL AGES (outside)!!!!!!!!! And beer sales go to charity, so come ready to DRINK!!!!!!!!!!
Additional information about Slum-B-Q 4, future events, press materials, and related images are available upon request.
It is also important to note that we strongly encourage people to bring cameras and any recording equipment they would like in order to document Slum-B-Q 4 for archival purposes.
The whole shindig is organized and brought to you by The New Dark Ages and the fine folks of Carabar.
