This year’s event boasts an extensive lineup + Columbia-based recording artist, producer, entrepreneur and hip-hop activist Master Splnta will return as the host.

Headliners

Lettuce: six-piece, GRAMMY-nominated funk band that fuses, hip-hop, jazz, soul, psychedelia, and rock.

Shane Smith and the Saints: This country, folk, and rock band has been featured on hit TV shows like “Yellowstone” and “Landman.”

The Stews: a gritty rock + indie band that formed during the pandemic and played sold-out shows at venues like Windjammer and New York’s Bowery Ballroom.

Badfish: For nearly 25 years, Badfish has brought feel-good, high-energy vibes as a tribute to Sublime’s ska-punk and reggae-rock legacy.
