Today's Mixtape Festival Announces 2015 Line Up


>> Today's Mixtape Festival is back and better than ever in 2015. The two-day event will take place on August 15th & 16th at The Emporium on Long Island, and the line-up has just been announced. Headliners The Movielife, who will play their first Long Island show in over 10 years as headliners at the event, will be joined by fellow headliners Every Time I Die. Other acts performing at this year's festival include A Loss For Words (who will sadly be playing on Long Island for the last time here), Real FriendsState Champs, Incendiary, Iron Chic, and more. Plus, Andrew W.K. will be performing at the official after party on Saturday night.  

>> A portion of this year's festival ticket sales will go towards The Safe Center, Nassau County's only comprehensive victims' services agency, offering confidential and cost-free services to victims of child abuse, domestic and dating violence, rape and sexual assault, and human trafficking. "The Safe Center is an important resource for sexual abuse victims on Long Island. This relates directly to issues in the punk rock and hardcore communities, issues that are usually ignored instead of being made aware of, discussed, and resolved," shares TMF founder Jake Zimmerman. "As a community and as decent human beings, we cannot stand by and let these victims' voices go unheard." For more information on The Safe Center, please visit: http://www.thesafecenterli.org/




>> "Today's Mixtape Festival 2015 lineup includes the most exciting and well-known bands that we have had on our festival to date," states Zimmerman. "We are thrilled to bring a variety of the heaviest hitters in punk rock, hardcore and emo. After years of requests, The Movielife will make their hometown return as part of Today's Mixtape Festival-their first Long Island show in thirteen years."
