The Bumbershoot 2012 lineup is still coming together and the talent pool just got a little bit deeper. Yesterday Bumbershoot announced that Gotye has been added to the festival.
This happens all the time with festivals. They release the lineup and say “more to come” and later they tend to add artists more to the bottom part of the lineup than at the top. This is kind of a big deal because Gotye is huge right now.
Gotye’s song “Somebody That I Used To Know” is everywhere. It has been remixed by everybody with a computer and it might be the most covered song on YouTube right now.
When Gotye was in Seattle last month they sold out the Showbox Sodo in a hurry and I heard nothing but great reviews from those who attended. This is a great addition for Bumbershoot.
