The Hopscotch Festival, which celebrates indie rock from the local scene to artists from around the world, announced their initial lineup for September 14-16, 2014. Spoon, Mastodon, St. Vincent, Death, Sun Kil Moon, and High on Fire top the list. The Raleigh festival’s philosophy: “We wanted to highlight artists—both established and emerging—who are making incredible music right now, while also presenting Hopscotch’s usual roster of unorthodox and less obvious festival choices.”

That’s certainly a welcome relief from the influx of cookie cutter festivals that are springing up over the last few years. Hopscotch boasts that 40% of its 160 artists will be from North Carolina. VIP and 3-Day tickets are on sale right now at the official site.
