The Village Voice’s annual 4Knots Music Festival is always a highlight of my summer, stretching back to the early days when it used to take place at Coney Island and be known as the Siren Music Festival. This year, Speedy Ortiz kicked off the festival for me, with a wonderful set under the sun next to the Peking boat.
The group, now with new guitarist Devin McKnight (who replaced Matt Robidoux) seems to get better and better every time I see them. The trend continued at 4Knots with one of the bands tightest and liveliest performances yet.
