Sasquatch, Washington State’s best cryptid and Memorial Day music festival, just announced its 2012 schedule. Sure, the headliners – the Roots, Jack White, Bon Iver, Beck, Feist – are great, but check out the small print for a lot of awesome acts (we’re especially impressed by their profuse offering of amazing local Seattle hip-hop, from the bigger names, like Shabazz Palaces and TheeSatisfaction, to the more obscure Fresh Espresso, Grynch, and Don’t Talk to the Cops). Fortunately, it looks like there’s only a few pesky conflicts to worry about – Alabama Shakes vs. TheeSatisfaction, Childish Gambino vs. Araabmusik vs. Unknown Mortal Orchestra, and that really painful Beirut vs. The Walkmen vs. Zola Jesus – but we’re sure you’ll figure it out. Check out the schedule here.
