Flaming Lips, Cat Power, Man Man Play Echo Project

The Flaming Lips, Cat Power and her Dirty Delta Blues backing band, and Man Man are among the artists who will perform across 350+ acres of Bouckaert Farm outside of Atlanta on October 12-14 for the Earth-friendly Echo Project festival.

Other performers during the weekend include the Roots, the Killers, Secret Machines, the Polyphonic Spree, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, RJD2, Cypress Hill, Brazilian Girls, the Album Leaf, Rodrigo y Gabriela, Lyrics Born, Stephen Marley, MSTRKRFT, Thievery Corporation, the Bravery, and Son Volt.

In addition to the tunes, the Echo Project is focused on the environment. For the three weeks leading up to the festival, Echo will lead a cleanup effort on the Chattahoochee River, near the festival site. Volunteers who help out will receive "the Be Green Ticket upgrade" for the fest in addition to "exclusive camping spots."
