Geese, Jess Williamson, MSPaint, Water From Your Eyes, and dozens more set for picturesque fest outside Portland, Oregon this August
Courtney Barnett, Bonnie “Prince” Billy, and Durand Jones lead the dozens of artists set to perform at the 2024 Pickathon festival, taking place on a picturesque farm outside of Portland, Oregon in August.
Geese, Vacations, Jess Williamson, MSPaint, Water From Your Eyes, Elephant Revival, Ratboys, Cocorosie, and Chance Peña are also among the emerging artists on this year’s eclectic lineup.
Tickets for this year’s Pickathon, taking place Aug. 1 to 4 on Happy Valley, Oregon’s Pendarvis Farm, are available now at the festival’s website. In addition to the music, the festival highlights the region’s artisanal food and craft beer scene, as well as hosts programming dedicated to comedy, visual art, literature, and family fun.
Other artists appearing at the 2024 Pickathon include New Orleans brass ensemble the Soul Rebels, lo-fi singer-songwriter Joanna Sternberg, breakout East Texas country singer Vincent Neil Emerson, funk-soul artist Adi Oasis, and more.
This year’s Pickathon lineup arrives on a particularly joyful note: Last month, following a hearing to decide the fest’s fate, organizers secured a permit with the Happy Valley City Planning Commission to ensure that the festival will remain at the cozy confines of Pendarvis Farm for at least the next 10 years.
