Just a couple of weeks ago, Mo Pop announced its lineup for 2018. One of the most anticipated events in Detroit every year, this festival has brought out huge names like Modest Mouse, Chromeo, Foster the People and Run the Jewels, performing alongside some of Detroit's biggest up and coming acts. Jessica Hernandez & The Deltas, Tunde Olaniran and Stef Chura are just a few of the local acts that have graced the stage at Mo Pop. Well, this year's lineup has been announced and Bon Iver, Portugal. The Man and St. Vincent are just some of the big names on the bill. As far as local acts go, Joe Hertler & The Rainbow Seekers will be performing along with Empty Houses and Curtis Roach.
For those that aren't familiar with Curtis Roach, he is a hip-hop artist from right here in Detroit. His latest release Highly Caffeinated was named on the list of Best Hip Hop on Bandcamp. He sites 70's jazz, soul music and late 90's and early 2000's hip-hop as some of his influences. Give him a listen below.
