Voltage 2011 performers Pink Mink

​Though Voltage: Fashion Amplified is still months away (149 days, 13 hours, 45 minutes and 42 seconds away, to be exact, according to a ticker on their website), planning is well underway for next year's hybrid fashion and rock show at First Avenue. Today, Voltage planners unveiled their musical lineup for next year's event.

Phantom Tails, Me and My Arrow, Fort Wilson Riot, Communist Daughter, and Pink Mink will perform at Voltage 2011, which takes place April 15, 2011 in the Mainroom.

The band lineup will come as no surprise to avid Gimme Noise readers; both Pink Mink and Phantom Tails were featured in our Picked to Click issue, while the other three bands have been highlighted in our City of Music series (see below).

Now that the bands have been announced, Voltage is putting a call out for designers to outfit the bands for April's show. The deadline for band designer applicants is November 22 and more info will be posted here.
