CATERWAUL 2024 schedule

CATERWAUL: updated schedule revealed for Minneapolis festival celebrating "iconoclastic, noisy music" (Brainiac, Oxbow, Whores., more); tickets on sale now

With the 2024 incarnation of Caterwaul just one month away, the fest organizers have released the final updated lineup and schedule for the event.

Unfolding over four days, across stages at two iconic venues in Minneapolis, Minnesota, this year's Caterwaul boasts dozens of artists representing the full spectrum of "independent-minded, iconoclastic, noisy music," in the organizers' words.

Scheduled for May 24-27 at Minneapolis institutions Palmer's Bar and Mortimer's Bar, Caterwaul is fast becoming the epicenter of its own scene – a mix of the old and new, the known and unknown, not limited to any one specific genre but dedicated to uniting all people on the noisy, eccentric side of the fence. The festival, now in its third year, is sponsored by Three Floyds Brewing.

Some of the many highlights of the 2024 lineup include: Brainiac, Oxbow, Whores., Part Chimp, J. Robbins Band, Couch Slut, Gaswar, Ganser, Thrones, and CNTS. Newly added to the lineup is powertakeOff.

Beyond the stellar curation, Caterwaul has come to represent a cooperative, familial spirit within the underground. Through their decades of work in the trenches of independent music, serving in the roles of musician, label owner, show booker, podcaster, and more, Caterwaul founders Conan Neutron (Seismic Wave Entertainment), Rainer Fronz (Learning Curve Records), and Melanie Thomas are deeply tied to the artists and fans whom Caterwaul pulls together. A recent statement from the trio proclaims: "With Caterwaul we make a promise to showcase the paragons of the weird, whilst also prioritizing the community spirit that holds us all together. We are working harder than ever to make sure that our 2024 version will top the previous editions. Count on it."
