Edible Audible Picnic: Javelin August 9, 2010

Edible Audible Picnic, the poly-rhythmic music series returns to Millennium Park at noon this summer, featuring DJs and live bands as diverse and entrancing as the electronic genre in which they play. Presented by the Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs and Millennium Park, this free series expands to include 16 concerts on Mondays and select Saturdays at noon, beginning June 7 through September 4, 2010.

The Brooklyn based, beat-making duo, Javelin consists of cousins, Tom Van Buskirk and George Langford. Their self-released CDR, Jamz n Jemz, was selected as "Best New Music" by Pitchfork and the duo recently released their proper full length debut album No Mas on David Byrne’s Luaka Bop label. Also performing this summer at Lollapalooza, Javelin have already performed with Mos Def, remixed The Very Best, and toured the UK with the band Yeasayer.
