The initial lineup for the 2012 Electric Forest Festival is out. Resident headliners, the String Cheese Incident, lead the lineup alongside Bassnectar, STS9, Thievery Corporation, Girl Talk, and a bunch of other big names in the jam and electronic space (and just about everything else in between).

In case you missed it, the lineup for this year’s Snowball Music Festival was announced recently and it’s totally nuts. Any festival set in Vail, Colorado would be something to pay attention to regardless, and this year the promoters went all-out on the talent by snagging Snoop Dogg, Bassnectar, Rusko, TV on the Radio, Big Boi, Major Lazer and quite a few others that we’ve been paying attention to for a while. Read on for the full lineup and get your tickets while they are some still available. The festy goes down the first weekend of March at Nottingham Park in Avon, CO. READ MORE

The lineup for one of the nation’s biggest electronic music festival, Miami’s annual Ultra Music Festival, was just announced late last week right before Christmas. This is an absolutely stacked affair and I don’t recommend anyone skip on this if they like the untz. The fest returns to Miami’s downtown Bayfront Park area and will be happening from March 23-25, 2012 as part of Music Week in Miami. Tickets are already on sale.
And you should really think about buying tickets for this one if you’re in the area and/or spending money on South by Southwest just isn’t your thing. The Ultra highlights are plentiful in our eyes with the lineup on day one featuring Skrillex, Pretty Lights, and Kraftwerk, along with Justice, M83, and Fatboy Slim on day two, and then finally SBTRKT, Flying Lotus, and Bassnectar on day three. Wow, right?!
Read on for the full lineup and stay tuned for their phase two of the artist announcements; I’m not sure tickets will last too long for this one, though… READ MORE
The lineup for this year’s SnowGlobe Music Festival has been announced!
As we wrote about earlier this week, the bands that have been added on this lineup reflect a bunch of the teasing the promoters did to entice people to buy tickets to the three-day NYE 2012 outdoor celebration in South Lake Tahoe. We’re psyched to see middleweights like Childish Gambino, Big Gigantic, SBTRKT, Emancipator and Paper Diamond all on the bill; read on for the full set of artists that will be appearing. READ MORE
The organizers over at SnowGlobe Music Festival have started “leaking” out the names of the other bands fit for the bill. While they say it’s not official yet, this post on Twitter implies that they’re clearly not really concerned with making it obvious or not. They tweeted out names of bands and links to YouTube videos they like, and the official press release will be coming tomorrow.
Then they said this:
In addition to the already announced headliners of Pretty Lights, Bassnectar, Thievery Corporation and The Glitch Mob, the folks putting on the festival will (probably) be adding the following artists:
Kraddy, Blockhead, Dillon Francis, Mux Mool, NastyNasty, Antiserum, Big Gigantic, Porter Robinson, Ill-Esha, Eliot Lipp, Fishbone, The M Machine, & Tipper
Sometime today the official headliner announcement is going to come down from the team at SnowGlobe Music Festival, a New Year’s Eve three-day music festival celebration in South Lake Tahoe, CA that just jumped on my radar. I am all over this festival, though, so I was quick to jump in with their PR team and ask for the deets ahead of the rest of the general public info leak.
Thanks to their team getting me the info just in time for the release of the morning Tahoe papers, I’ve got it on proper and official authority that Pretty Lights, Bassnectar, Thievery Corporation and Glitch Mob are all set as headliners for the three day event. For any Bay Area fans that are looking for the untz that weekend, the team putting on this festival is bound to deliver a full-on rager of a lineup with at least 40 more bands scheduled to be announced.
We’ll be rounding up all the details on New Year’s Eve shows early next week to make sure everyone knows where they should be planning to rage face. Some decisions seemed easy before and now they seem more difficult…
Update: here is (likely) the rest of the lineup…
Kraddy
Blockhead
Dillon Francis
Mux Mool
NastyNasty
Antiserum
Big Gigantic
Porter Robinson
Ill-Esha
Eliot Lipp
Fishbone
The M Machine
Tipper
Run DMT
Satellites
