Deerhoof to Curate Belgian Festival

Deerhoof to Curate Belgian Festival

SXSW has come and gone, and that means that festival season is about to be underway. One fest that you may not have heard of boasts Deerhoof as its curator this year. The two-day Sonic City festival is in its third year and will take place in Kortrijk, Belgium at club De Kreun April 17-18.

Sonic City’s lineup includes an eclectic mix of bands from all over the world. The Go! Team, Ben Butler & Mousepad, The Kids, Talk Normal and many more will perform. And there will be a special performance by Deerhoof on April 16 (the night before the festival officially kicks off). Tickets are on sale now.
