In case you haven’t noticed, last.fm has a cool new feature, a list of upcoming music festivals in your area.
“We know from experience that many of the best music memories happen when you’re rocking out in a field with thousands of other sunburnt/soaking wet compatriots,” Last’s Robin Lisle wrote in a recent blog post. So it looks like the application grabs your IP address and tells you about whatever’s happening in your region.
A lot going on in mine, actually, including the Health and Harmony Music and Arts Festival at the Sonoma County (CA) Fairgrounds on June 11. Bands will include Lauryn Hill, Steel Pulse, Slightly Stoopid, and The Expendibles.
You can also search the app for events across the United States, North America, London, Paris, and even Helsinki.
“This is just the beginning,” Lisle promises. “Over the next month we’ll be rolling out additional features to help you find up and coming artists you should check out (so you can say you saw them before they were big), find festival buddies and easily share your festival picks.”
