Madison’s inaugural FRZN Fest with two-day indie line-up

If you like discovering new indie bands and keeping yourself sane in January, FRZN Fest might be just what the doctor ordered. The inaugural two-day indie music festival will take place Friday, January 13th and Saturday, January 14th at the High Noon Saloon in Madison.

With a cross-section of emerging artists from Sean Carey (of Bon Iver) and Polica (featuring members of Gayngs) to Class Actress (known as Brooklyn's Madonna), the multi-day festival will bring a much needed spark to a traditionally slow time of the year for live entertainment. According to Chairlift's Facebook invite, Active Child may also be added to the festival. The line-up so far:



Friday, January 13

Chairlift,

DOM,

Class Actress,

Polica

Plus more!



Saturday, January 14

S. Carey (of Bon Iver),

Peter Wolf Crier,

Caveman,

Carter Tanton,

Juniper Tar



The middle of January is usually reserved for forced isolation and withdrawal from the world in general. Many Wisconsinites hibernate in their home or apartment cursing the frigid weather and left-over credit card bills from Christmas. Here's a reason to get out of the house! You can’t beat the price for FRZN Fest with $20 for both nights or $12 for a single night purchased in advance.

FRZN Fest takes advantage of the routing opportunities made available by Chicago’s larger Tomorrow Never Knows Festival which runs during the same time frame from Jan 11th – 15th. Many of the scheduled acts at the High Noon are also playing in Chicago either the night before or the day after the Madison shows.
