Today on Morning Becomes Eclectic we announced the stellar lineup for Long Beach festival Music Tastes Good!

The mammoth two-day music, food, and arts festival returns to Marina Green Park, along the picturesque Downtown Long Beach shoreline, on September 29 and 30th, and will be headlined by none other than iconic British New Wave legends New Order (Saturday) making their only west coast appearance this year, and Grammy-nominated and Mercury Prize-winning English singer-songwriter James Blake (Sunday). Full lineup below.

Returning to the festival for year three is an expanded and more inclusive Taste Tent with the theme “Port Cities of the West Coast,” which will offer all attendees (not just VIP’s) a chance to immerse their taste buds in culinary samplings from some of the best coast’s most talented and acclaimed chefs and restaurants including:

Wesley Young of Vancouver’s Pidgin, Jeffery Vance of Seattle’s No Anchor, Cameron Hanin on Seattle’s Ma’Ono, Pat Manning of Portland’s Toro Bravo, Rachel Aronow (formerly of San Francisco’s Alembic), Sincere Justice of Oakland’s Tacos Sincero, Eduardo Martinez of Sacramento’s Milk Money, Michael Thiemann of Sacramento’s Mother, Dawna Bass of Long Beach’s Under the Sun, Jason Witzl of Long Beach’s Ellie’s, Aliye Aydin of Long Beach’s A Good Carrot, Dina Amadril of Long Beach Creamery and Arthur Gonzales of Long Beach’s Roe/Panxa Cocina.
