Summer in the music world is time for festivals. Bonnaroo, Coachella, Lollapalooza, Pitchfork Fest. Firefly, which takes place in “the woodlands of Dover, Delaware,” is set to take place from June 16-19 and is the first big festival to drop its lineup for next summer. And it’s massive.
Some of the folks we cover set to attend the festival are A$AP Rocky, Disclosure, Ludacris, Fetty Wap, Earth, Wind & Fire, Vince Staples, GoldLink, PELL, D.R.A.M. and many more. But because I know damn near all the readers don’t stick simply to hip-hop, here are a couple other of the acts set to perform that I’d be geeked as hell to see: Major Lazer, Tame Impala, Flogging Molly, Trombone Shorty & Orleans Avenue, Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats, Jack Garratt and god damnit, I’ve gotta find a way to get to this thing.
Between Firefly and the newly formed Okeechobee festival, 2016 is shaping up to be a huge festival run. Check out the whole lineup above. Tickets go on sale Friday.
