John Dwyer seems inexhaustible. He seems like he should be exhausted, what with all the touring and Thee Oh Sees albums and reuniting Coachwhips. And, yet, he seems to never stop…

San Francisco psych rockers Thee Oh Sees are also playing for the first time since 2013, but the cherry on the weekend is without a doubt Sixties legend Ronnie Spector, who headlines the festival on Sunday.
