I know I’m probably the only person on this blog who will find this news exciting, but a partial lineup has been announced for this year’s NYC Popfest. Take a brief look at their list thus far:

The Besties (NYC)

The Cannanes (Australia)

Dent May & his ukelele (MO)

Friday Bridge (Sweden)

From Bubblegum to Sky (NYC)

The Hermit Crabs (UK)

Mahogany (NYC)

My Teenage Stride (NYC)

Oh! Custer (Sweden)

The Orchids (Scotland)

One Happy Island (MA)

The Pains of Being Pure at Heart (NYC)

Tullycraft (WA)

Love is All (Sweden)

If you’re not familiar with any of the above bands, take my word, this is a freakishly amazing lineup. It’s so good, in fact, that I just might have to go out a buy a new cardigan for the festivities.

Continue after the jump for some video highlights that will hopefully prove to you the awesomeness that will be this year’s Popfest.

My Teenage Stride - To Live and Die in the Airport Lounge

Love is All - Make Out, Fall Out, Make Up

The Besties - Prison Song

There's no good video for The Pains of Being Pure at Heart, but you should really go to their Myspace and stream everything they have on there. This band is going to be HUGE.
