WEQX ALBANY'S "LARKFEST 2008" SPOTLIGHTS LOCAL TALENT -- Alternative WEQX Albany will present "LarkFEST 2008" on Lark Street in Alabany, NY on September 20th... Signed acts including The Nightwatchman (Tom Morello), Eric Hutchinson, Oppenheimer and Val Emmich will be joined by local acts The Sense Offenders, Maggie Mayday, and two of our upstate-area faves Saving Atlantis and Aficionado...

Saving Atlantis
is a six-piece electronica-tinged pop act (Think Something Corporate-meets-Cut Copy)...

Aficionado is less mainstream, more progressive -- they're a ten-piece outfit including a flautist, two trumpets, and a visual director.

Good stuff worth looking into!
