Pickathon 2012, an annual festival at Pendarvis Farm near Portland, OR, has announced several key artists for the August 3-5 event, including Neko Case, Thee Oh Sees, Dr. Dog, The War on Drugs, Blitzen Trapper, and more.
The eco-friendly festival has announced that no single-use items will be distributed by vendors, meaning attendees will receive branded stainless steel containers for beer, water, dishware, etc. The move last year reduced total waste by 21% per attendee.
