Arthur Magazine and Spaceland Productions have joined forces to produce ArthurFest on Sep. 4 and 5 at the historic Barnsdall Art Park in the Los Feliz area of Los Angeles.

The lineup includes headliners Sonic Youth, Yoko Ono, Sleater-Kinney, Spoon, The Black Keys, Cat Power and The Olivia Tremor Control. The festival will have two stages and run for two days.

Two-day passes for the event are now on sale for $70 and one-day passes are $40 through ticketweb.com. In addition to live music, the festival will also feature rare avant-garde films; food stands from neighborhood eateries and a booth featuring 80-year old bluesman T-Model Ford who will dispense wisdom (and possibly kisses) for a small price.
