The lineup for this year’s 4Knots Music Festival—the Village Voice‘s free summer-music extravaganza, taking place at the South Street Seaport on July 143is beginning to take shape, and this morning brings news of the first five bands on the all-day affair’s docket. Among the artists playing Piers 16 and 17 that day: chiming Brooklynites The Drums; the fuzzed-out Crocodiles; the outrageously pleasant Hospitality; the blistering punkers Bleached; and R&B revivalist Nick Waterhouse. More bands will be announced shortly, but for now, why not sample the wares of the lineup as it stands below?
