The National’s event will be back in Cincinnati for the first time since 2018.
The National have announced the artists who’ll be joining them at this year’s Homecoming Festival between September 15th-16th.
With the host band headlining both nights once again, Patti Smith, Pavement, Arooj Aftab, Bartees Strange, The Walkmen, Weyes Blood, Snail Mail and Julia Jacklin are among those on the line-up for Smale Park.
When we launched Homecoming in 2018, we were overwhelmed by the response from the community and by our renewed sense of connection to our hometown. It was such an exciting, memorable weekend and we’ve long hoped to bring it back. We’re honored to return to Cincinnati five years later and be joined by so many of our favorite musicians and friends.
Matt Berninger and co. released their new album First Two Pages Of Frankenstein last month – ‘the sound of personal rain turning into a downpour‘, according to Live4ever’s review.
