These United States – “Get Yourself Home (In Search of the Mistress Whose Kisses are Famous)”
The Mother Hips co-curated the fest with (((folkYEAH!))) and will be headlining both nights’ shows. Among others, they’re expected to play songs from a new album due out this fall. Hips frontman Tim Bluhm is quoted as saying, “Big Sur has always been an inspirational place and a hideout for artists of all kinds. It’s exciting to congregate there and make music.”
Festival hours are 3pm-11pm (Friday) and 1pm-11pm (Saturday). Tickets are $25 per day or $45 for a two day pass (kids under 11 are free), and can be purchased at HenryMiller.org. Information on camping for the weekend can be found here and here.
