Merge 25 Festival Update

We are edging ever so closely to the Merge 25 Fest on July 23-26, so Merge Records has just released some new information about this celebratory event.

Who doesn't like a good party?  Merge is offering you two dates to celebrate right, even if you don't have tickets to the festival; on July 24 and July 25, get your party on behind Cat's Cradle. Both events are free and open to the public (until capacity is reached) with beer and food available for purchase. According to Merge Records, "Think of these events as tasty appetizers before each evening’s six-course meal inside Cat’s Cradle:"

Thursday, July 24, 4–6pm
behind Cat’s Cradle, Carrboro, NC
(FREE & open to public)
Amor de Días
Hiss Golden Messenger

Friday, July 25, 4–6pm
behind Cat’s Cradle, Carrboro, NC
(FREE & open to public)
Radar Brothers
Saint Rich

The Thursday and Friday shows inside of Cat's Cradle are sold out, but act fast, and you still might be able to get your hands on tickets for Wednesday's show at Baldwin Auditorium in Durham and Saturday's big outdoor blowout in Carrboro.

Merge celebrates so hard, they need a separate website just to keep all of the details straight.  To help music fans keep track of the Merge 25 Fest events, Merge Records and Squarespace created this website; visit it, bookmark it, share it with all of your Merge-loving friends. 

We'll be sure to keep you posted on the updates and festivities for this Merge event.  Stay tuned!
