Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic Zeros
Music that old folks and youngsters alike can rock along to, listening to this crew sounds all too familiar. It's mostly the 60's free love sound that appeals to the oldsters, and probably not Ima Robot, since Edward Sharpe is the same guy. I know, it's odd.
It is nearly impossible to listen to the song "Home" more than twice without getting it stuck to your brain, ala "Hit Me Baby One More Time." During the Sasquatch! Music Festival this year, more people at the campground were singing or playing "Home" than MGMT's "Kids!"
You also might recognize another song of theirs from the Ford Fiesta commercials. I'm not going to say this band will blow you away live (yet), but this will be a fist pumping good old time. Just be sure to practice which beat you should be raising your hand. They'll help you out.

EOTO
String Cheese Incident fans unite. This spin off electronic jam band duo should keep the crowd moving. I really hope they play my favorite songs.
Alright, that was a joke, they don't actually play songs.

Surfer Blood/The Drums
If you miss your chance to catch Surfer Blood at the MusicFestNW Nike Showcase, here's your next chance. Their recent album Astro Coast will be seen on many best of year end lists. This will be their fourth appearance in the NW this year, a bit odd for a band from Florida.
