Festival interludes will be provided by Housecore Records’ artist Author & Punisher and vinyl DJ set from Bob Lugowe/Relapse Records.
“This is the first show that we’re announcing for 2015 and it couldn’t be more appropriate,” said Kylesa’s Laura Pleasants. “We feel that we will be among family in such an environment of heavy riffs, trippy meanderings and good vibes. What a great way to kick it in California again! Come head bang, talk music and get lost in the music with us.”
