From July 30 through August 2, a total of 22 Milwaukee bands and solo artists will make the 100-mile trek north on US 41—or I-43, if they want to take the scenic route—to partake the Mile Of Music festival in downtown Appleton. Despite the distance, Milwaukee acts will account for 42 of the performances that will be taking place over the course of the four-day, 200-act, 35-venue affair.
Mile Of Music released its full schedule late last week, including a bunch of acts with Milwaukee ties. For those planning to head up for Mile 13 (or for those of you in the Fox Valley who are looking to add a little Cream City flavor into your festival experience), here’s a day-by-day guide for where and when to see Milwaukee musicians perform during this year’s Mile Of Music.
