This week's edition of BrooklynVegan Blog Radio on Sirius XM we pulled from the initial lineup of the 2018 Desert Daze festival (which is pretty sweet). We played songs by Tame Impala, Mercury Rev, Warpaint, Preoccupations, Connan Mockasin, A Place to Bury Strangers, Can, King Khan, Pond and lots more.
Plus: Mercury Rev will perform ’Deserter's Songs’ in full, and the initial lineup also includes Chelsea Wolfe, Malcolm Mooney of Can, Connan Mockasin, Preoccupations, A Place to Bury Strangers, and more.
