CMJ 2013 Recap

Other festivals might rise and fall, but year-in, year-out, CMJ comes to New York City every October. It doesn’t have the intensity of an outdoor festival such as Coachella or Bonnaroo, and isn’t the must-be-at industry event that is South-by-Southwest, but has the ease of being in the greatest city in the world, running from noon until bars close, with free drinks galore – and 24/7 subway service to taken your drunken ass home every night. The line-up of acts and parties may not have been the most impressive in 2013, but that just gave more time to catch the unknowns, long before they get huge (or break up), Tuesday to Saturday, October 15th to 19th:

 

Day 1 CMJ 2013 started off with a big Day One.
Recap >
Day 2 International & more on Day Two of CMJ 2013.
Recap >
Day 3 FADER Fort, KEXP and more on the third day of CMJ ’13.
Recap >
Day 4 Canada came to CMJ on Friday.
Recap >
Day 5 It was a light final day of CMJ 2013.
