Christmas is coming early for local music lovers. McDowell Mountain Music Festival just announced the first wave of acts for the 2018 event.
Recently rebranded as M3F, the festival is scheduled to take place at Hance Park from Friday, March 2, through Sunday, March 4. Like previous editions of the events, all proceeds will be donated to charity.
The “phase one” crop of bands announced is an eclectic mix of crossover indie acts like Cut Copy, big electronic acts like Big Gigantic, jam bands including O.A.R., and hometown heroes Phoenix Afrobeat Orchestra.
