Lancaster, PA (February 22, 2010) – Celebrating 15 years as one of the north east’s premier music events, Purple Door Arts and Music Festival announces a new partnership with Facedown Records, an expanded Forum schedule with rare performances and a line up featuring some of the hottest bands from around the country for 2010. Held August 13 and 14 at Ski Roundtop in Lewisberry, PA, tickets are on sale now.

With the intent of making the HM Stage line up even bigger and better, Purple Door is partnering with Facedown Records for “Facedown Friday,” featuring all bands from the label’s roster.

“We are very excited to have the opportunity to team up with Purple Door to bring the first ever Facedown Night,” says Jason Dunn of Facedown Records. “All four of the Facedown bands playing that night have brand new 2010 albums releasing before the fest and it's a perfect chance for people to see what Facedown is all about, from our seasoned veterans like War Of Ages and A Plea For Purging to our up and coming young bands like Onward To Olympas and In The Midst Of Lions.

The 2009 event saw the addition of a forum, featuring speakers and discussions in an intimate setting. For 2010, the Forum is hitting the stage. With the addition of a fourth stage, the Forum will feature speakers covering the hard-hitting and relevant topics of today, as well as a rare acoustic performances from industry-changing artists like Derek Webb and last year’s headlining band, Family Force 5.

"Its hard to believe Purple Door will celebrate the big one five this year,” says Festival Administrator, Chris Strayer. “Who would have known 15 years ago that our little Festival would become what it is today! We are excited to be bringing back many of the great additions to the festival we made last year plus several new elements for this year. Its going to be great!"
