Considering the setting and the bands, the annual Woodsist Festival at Henry Miller Memorial Library in Big Sur is one of the coolest and most un-festival-like festivals in Northern California. Organizers (((folkYeah!))) just released the lineup for this year's festival, as well as new dates, which should make it easier to find lodging in high-demand Big Sur. Artists performing this year include White Fence, Foxygen, Skygreen Leopards, Real Estate, the Fresh & Onlys, and, of course, Woods.
