If you’re looking for a wild weekend of music, mark your calendars for the Capitol Hill Block Party on July 19-20! This festival is not just another summer event; it’s a chance to see a mix of both established artists and rising stars all in one place. Headliners include DJ Pee .Wee, aka Anderson .Paak, who promises a set laced with dance anthems and undeniable energy. I mean, who could resist a dance party powered by such a versatile artist?
But wait, there’s more! The rising indie sensation Dora Jar and the edgy pop star Slayyyter will also grace the stage, and their performances are guaranteed to captivate fans. And let’s not overlook Thundercat, whose funky beats and jazz-infused grooves will have you shaking it like there’s no tomorrow. And if hyperpop bites your ear in just the right way, you’re going to want to experience 100 gecs live!
As the festival rolls into Sunday, the excitement ups a notch with acts like Porter Robinson and the trend-setting DJ Yaeji. With such a varied lineup, it’d be a shame not to catch at least a few sets. So, what are you most excited about seeing? Will it be the nostalgia trip with Slayyyter or the futuristic flair of Yaeji? We want to know your picks for the weekend!
