Atlanta, GA, July 26, 2007 – The third-annual Other Sound Music Festival expands this year to include four nights of live music at Atlanta’s leading independent music venues. Festival organizers announced the lineup for the festival featuring over 20 bands from six Atlanta-based labels. The festival takes place September 6-9, 2007.

Headlining acts include, All Night Drunk Prowling Wolves, at the Earl; Moresight, at the Drunken Unicorn; Luigi, at Lenny’s and Untied States at the 11:11 Teahouse.

“We feel like the festival will be highlighted by live acts,” said ISP-Music’s Eric Holder, “Club Awesome’s famous pool parties are becoming legendary as well as Moresight’s shows which end up feeling more like a revival than a concert.”
Once again organizers opted not to include any bands that played the previous year, hoping to focus on exposing attendees to music they may not have heard before. “We just thought including the same bands from last year would defeat our purpose, plus it keeps our Other Sound sampler CDs more relevant,” noted Kim Ware, festival founder and owner/operator of Eskimo Kiss Records and Conundrum Booking.

While only three years young, The Other Sound Festival already has a history of exposing audiences to some of the best music in the area. Past acts include Deerhunter and Snowden, who have catapulted into the national scene through performances at SXSW and features on MTV. Ultrababyfat, who garnered national success in the nineties, played last year to promote their first release in five years (on local indie Two Sheds Music).

Participating labels include Eskimo Kiss Records, Two Sheds Music, ISP-Music, Goodnight Records, Passive Aggressive Network and Containment Theory Records, along with local booking agency Conundrum Booking. For more information visit http://theothersound.net.
