Noise for the Needy (NFTN) is pleased to announce that the 2013 event will take place June 20th-22nd. Artists will play in Seattle’s best known Ballard venues (Tractor Tavern, The Sunset, and Conor Byrne – as well as a massive new outdoor venue and beer garden, details TBA) to thousands of adoring fans. It’s all for a good cause, as proceeds from NFTN 2013 will benefit a deserving Seattle charity to be named shortly.
