The lineup's just been announced for this year's party for literacy, going down at the Beacon Theatre in NYC. It's the Revenge Of The Book Eaters, in which:
A.C. Newman sings alone
Grizzly Bear is a band
Feist reads from a book
Jim James croons
Sarah Vowell speaks
Demetri Martin hosts
The show is one-night-only this year, at NYC's Beacon Theater -- on 8/26 to benefit 826NYC (cute!), the nonprofit Brooklyn writing helping kids to get expositive. Last year Sufjan and Byrne had a duet on "Saginaw, Michigan." Who knows what the indie all-stars have cooked up this year, but you can bet it'll be awesome. Literally! (Ha!) Tickets range from $35-$50 and go on sale tomorrow at 10AM. Get 'em here.
