The First Annual Freedom Festival is a totally free and completely independent music festival (in other words, totally the type of thing FreeNYC loves to tell you about)! Performances will all take place at Cakeshop and The Living Room on the LES. Bands on the line up so far are Earl Greyhound, Vague Angels, Pyradical, Rockwell Rockwellian, The Exit, La Vernissagerie and Honky Tonk Happy Hour, and the world premier of Larune’s rock opera “Bulgaria." The goal of the festival is to "promote a sense of community by offering an eclectic line-up of FREE, live musical experiences to the public" and also to launch ThePeriodicLabel.com, a free music download site to hopefully "encourage artists to find newer and more relevant ways to promote/sell their work and engage their audiences."
