Indy Festival Partners in association with the Indiana State Fairgrounds and Event Center today announced the second All IN “Dreamset” lineup of all star artists uniting for a one-time-only celebration of all-time great songs. This new Dreamset will celebrate the songs of Tom Petty and take place on night 2 of the inaugural All IN Music & Arts Festival, Labor Day weekend, Saturday, September 3 and Sunday, September 4, 2022 in Indianapolis.

Day three of Outside Lands brought along with it a familiar bittersweet feeling. The artists spanned such an eclectic genre, it felt hard to pinpoint a coherent theme of the artists of the day, but in a way, that felt entirely symbolic of everything the city of San Francisco should stand for. The day brought music from every imaginable genre from hip hop, to hard rock, artists whose music has almost been dwarfed by their political movements, and even a well-welcomed Grateful Dead cover in Golden Gate Park.

Day two of Outside Lands brought the biggest crowd of the weekend, and with that it gave a platform to a heavier genre, once thought to be a fad of the early 2000’s. From top to bottom, the day’s bill was packed with pop-punk artists new, old, and some bridging the gap in between, proving once and for all, pop punk’s not dead.

While the distance between this and the last Outside Lands was the shortest in the history of the festival, last year’s dates were moved from August to October due to the pandemic, anticipation from the fans was not lacking as crowds showed up early and enthusiastically to Golden Gate Park Friday morning. The return of San Francisco’s end of Summer classic brought a sense of unity to the city as everyone breathed a collective sigh of relief that the community and the world was returning to a more comfortable pace.

The inaugural TidalWave Music Festival hosted a capacity audience this past weekend. The three-day beachfront “Roar On The Shore" took place on the Atlantic City Beach in New Jersey with headliners Luke Bryan, Morgan Wallen and Dierks Bentley helping establish the festival’s first year. TidalWave partnered with Rock The Ocean to help generate awareness and raise funds for ocean conservation. While onsite fans could visit the festival’s “Conservation Village” offering interactive activities and opportunities to learn how fans can help save the oceans.

Who doesn’t love choice? With two dozen live performances on three stages, a popular 4,400-square-foot dance floor, and food from Thailand to Narragansett Bay, Rhythm & Roots offers up the options.

Sound Summit, a musical gathering like no other, announces the return of the daylong festival set on the slopes of Mt. Tam on Saturday, October 22. Featuring a day of great music amidst the Bay Area’s favorite season, Sound Summit’s lineup includes The New Yorker-named “best American rock band of this decade,” The War On Drugs; critically acclaimed singer-songwriter Faye Webster;  beloved indie folk-rockers Fruit Bats; and soulful local ensemble Wreckless Strangers.

Music and merriment drifted from person to person on August 5 to 7, all wrapped in the loving embrace of the fabled tree-and-meadow acreage of Black Oak Ranch, aka the Hog Farm, for the second Days Between festival in far Northern California.

Beach Road Weekend Presented by the Black Dog has revealed the daily schedule for the 2022 festival. This year, the music will begin each morning at 10:45 with 30 of the top bands touring the country today. The festival will wrap up at 8:00 PM each night. The party will then continue at the Loft in Oak Bluffs as RIPE (Friday), Sammy Rae & the Friends and The National Reserve (Saturday), and Guster (Sunday) perform.
