Ah, the mornings are beginning to be met by a cool autumn breeze...so this must mean desert festival season is under way!
Desert Daze has been a myriad of magical atmospheric wonder along with the most entertaining of artists, and this year is no exception. With
Tame Impala headlining, it could in fact be the best one yet.
I could enumerate on how this festival is, in my opinion, the Mecca of all festivals, but it is really something to be seen by the own eye to truly comprehend. Along with bizarre instillations and an entire village complete with meditation tent and tea ceremonies, this isn’t just a music festival…it’s an Extraterrestrial Festival.
The California-based festival run by
Jjuujju’s guitarist Phil Pirrone has an impressive lineup this year featuring Tame Impala,
My Bloody Valentine,
King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard (also a returning band),
Pulp frontman
Jarvis Cocker,
Shellac,
Ty Segall &
White Fence,
Warpaint,
Earth (performing The Bees Made Honey In The Lion’s Skull),
Malcom Mooney of CAN,
Steve Albini,
Connan Mockasin,
Pond, and
Julia Holter,
Earthless. There are always surprise guests and DJ’s along with plenty of mind-enhancing activities to attend in between shows.
English dream-pop band
Slowdive has recently been added to the festival, which will by far be one of the most sought-out performances of the weekend.
Check out Desert Daze’s amazing lineup poster, featuring the latest additions and broken down by day. Single-day tickets are now available in addition to three-day general admission and VIP passes. Visit the festival’s website for more info.
Desert Daze is happening October 12th-14th, 2018 in Lake Perris, California.
