British rock band Radiohead will
headline the first two nights of the inaugural All Points West
Music & Arts Festival, to be held August 8-10 near Manhattan.
Singer/songwriter Jack Johnson, whose latest album has been
No. 1 on the U.S. pop charts for the last two weeks, will
headline the final night. Johnson is also one of the headliners
at the Coachella festival near Los Angeles in April. Both
events are organized by the same promoter, AEG
Live/Goldenvoice.
All Points West will take place at Liberty State Park, just
across the Hudson River from lower Manhattan.
The lineup also features such acts as Kings Of Leon, Cat
Power, the Roots, Rodrigo y Gabriela, and Youssou N'Dour.
Tickets go on sale February 29. Single-day tickets are $89,
while three-day passes will sell for $258.
