Magma Festival Announces Line-Up

by

Local DIY radio station Hollow Earth Radio is getting ready for its fourth annual Magma Festival this March and while the video announcing the line-up might give you nightmares, the bevy of great local and national acts that are playing won’t.

A $60 donation to Hollow Earth, will not only help the volunteer run, non-profit station keep running, but it will also get you into all 10 Magma shows. You can donate online via paypal or pick up passes at 20/20 Cycle, Wall of Sound or Hollow Earth HQ in the Central District. Tickets for individual shows will also be available at the doors, but we highly recommend you buy a pass, support Hollow Earth and in the process get to see some of Seattle’s lesser-known music venues and impromptu music venues like the intriguing “Traveling Light Rail Show” happening on March 5th.

We’ve got the full Magma Fest line-up and dates after the jump. (more…)
