More MoogFest: Big Boi, Jonsi, and Caribou Added to Schedule

The second round of lineup announcements for AC Entertainment's MoogFest, scheduled for Halloween weekend in Asheville, N.C., is even better than the first. The initial announcement a few weeks ago included heavyweight headliners Massive Attack and MGMT, along with the Washington, D.C.-based electronic duo Thievery Corporation. Now you can add Big Boi (one half of OutKast, whose new album Sir Lucious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty was released earlier this month to rave reviews), Jónsi (the frontman for Sigur Ros, who has just released his first solo album, Go), and the Canadian producer/programmer Daniel Snaith, who performs under the name Caribou and whose 2010 album Swim is very nice.

The full schedule and lineup will be announced on Aug. 10. Tickets go on sale Aug. 13. MoogFest will take place Oct. 29-31 at the Asheville Civic Center, the Thomas Wolfe Auditorium, and the Orange Peel.
