Shaky Knees 2016 came and went, closing down the 3 day festival Sunday under what will probably go down as the best weather the festival will ever see on a finicky Atlanta weekend in May. Day 3 was stacked full from the opening moments with Julien Baker all the way to Florence + the Machine closing it down. The only thing happy about the festival being over is the feet, but they would have kept on moving if Shaky Knees could keep going. Of course, there is the 1st Shaky Beats going on this coming weekend back at the same spot so….
For now, we are collecting our thoughts on the best sets each day, more about the festival itself, and working on tons of pictures from each band and the crowd at Shaky Knees. Check back, we may just have caught you in the crowd.
While we pick our faces off of the Centennial Park grounds, enjoy this photo set by John McNicholas from Shaky Knees Fest’s final day:
