Devendra, Boris, Furnaces Head Arthur Nights
Be Your Own Pet, Charalambides, Wooden Wand also on the bill

Last year's Arthur Fest was pretty sweet, but everybody, including the folks over at Arthur Magazine, knows that night time is the right time for hipsters to come out of hiding. So, this year, Arthur, in conjunction with the Echo Presents and Spaceland Productions, will put on Arthur Nights, a four-evening music extravaganza running October 19-22 at the Echo, Ex_Plx, and Jensen's Rec Center in Los Angeles.

Lineup highlights include Devendra Banhart, Boris, Fiery Furnaces, Six Organs of Admittance, Be Your Own Pet, Wooden Wand, Charalambides, Tall Firs, OM, Josephine Foster, Mia Doi Todd, and Bert Jansch in his first and only scheduled U.S. performance of the year.
