Pickles unite Pittsburghers all of kinds at Picklesburgh, but this year music may too. Earlier today, The Pittsburgh Downtown Partnership announced the musicians and bands performing at this year's popular festival, and the acts are all over the genre spectrum.
Under the hip-hop umbrella are
Mars Jackson, Back Alley Sound, and Isaiah Small.
Representing rock are
Jack Swing and
Andre Costello and the Cool Minors, while
Clara Kent covers the R&B/soul genre, and
Justin Fabus handles country.
Miss Freddye falls under the blues category, and
Elias Khouri under funk. Folk isn't forgotten about, as Townsppl has that covered, and PM Mirror represents electro-pop.
There's something for everyone this year at Picklesburgh; even if you don't like pickles, you can come for the eclectic mix of local talent.
The three-day festival returns to Downtown Pittsburgh Fri., July 26-Sun., July 28. Check out the full list of performance times
