Our live coverage from last year’s Sasquatch! Music Festival in Washington State, USA, unveiled it as one of the must-do festivals on the global circuit and with this years line-up sharing several key performers with this year’s Splendour In The Grass line-up (including Jack White, The Shins and Explosions In The Sky), all eyes will be looking to them once again in anticipation for the local festival season to come.
Sasquatch! is a four-day music marathon that takes place at the Gorge Amphitheatre, etched into the side of a secluded canyon in the US Pacific Northwest. Aside from its stellar location, the festival is best known for offering world-class line-ups that cater to modest audiences of through-and-through music lovers. This year Sasquatch! takes place from Friday 25th May to Monday 28th May.
