The lineup, promised to be filled with emerging local, national and international acts, so far includes The Eskies, Phantom, Liza Flume, Corner Boy, New Secret Weapon, Elastic Sleep, Sounds Of System Breakdown, Moscow Metro, The Vincent(s) and more but headliners won’t be announced until the week of the festival.
