After skipping 2020 entirely and delaying things until fall in 2021, Treefort Music Fest will get the party back on schedule for its 10th bash.
The annual festival will rock downtown Boise on March 23-27, 2022 — and organizers are unveiling band details now.
The first wave of acts, announced this week, includes 162 artists from around the globe, according to a press release.
Highlights:
▪ Kim Gordon, co-founder of influential rock band Sonic Youth
▪ Psych-punk rockers Osees, who played Treefort as Thee Oh Sees in 2016
▪ R&B group Durand Jones & The Indications
▪ Canadian indie-rock band Men I Trust
▪ Producer, DJ and gender-equality advocate LP Giobbi
▪ Boise indie-rock band Built To Spill
▪ Zambian psych-rock band W.I.T.C.H., “widely seen as the most popular band in Zambia in the 1970s,” according to the release.
Check out the full list at the Treefort website, where advance tickets are available for purchase. Treefort happens at multiple indoor and outdoor venues, with the main stage at 12th and Grove streets. Three waves of artists normally are announced prior to each festival.
“As we are gearing up to celebrate 10 years of Treefort Music Fest, we are so excited to roll out a first glimpse of what’s in store for March,” festival director Eric Gilbert said in a prepared statement. “The Treefort 10 lineup is shaping up to be our best ever with a mix of fan favorites from past Treeforts, a lot of new artists making fresh waves nationally, and some music scene legends that have long inspired so many of us and the artists that take part in Treefort each year.”
