LEVITATION announced 2021 lineup today and it is dope
LEVITATION Festival has announced the psychdelic rock music event‘s 2021 lineup today and it is dope. Besides the assumed performance by festival founders and neo-psychrock trailblazers, The Black Angels, a ton of great acts have been invited to perform including: Thundercat, Japanese Breakfast, Fuzz, A Place to Bury Strangers, The Hives and Kikagaku Moyo among others.
This lineup differs greatly from most U.S. music festivals already announced in quality. Fans can confidently purchase tickets knowing they’ll have a great experience. LEVITATION’s calling card is unique, never duplicated lineups that allow for music discovery as much as the opportunity to see your favorite, cutting edge acts.
LEVITATION has moved dates this year, due to the world wide pandemic. The fest originally took place in May but this year the five night, four day event takes place October 28-31 (Halloween weekend) with a kick off show scheduled for October 28. Hosting venues are located in the Red River Cultural District downtown and Austin’s East Side. Participating clubs include, Stubb’s BBQ, The Mohawk, Empire Control Room and Garage, Cheer Up Charlie’s, Hotel Vegas and more.
The long weekend of special performances featuring lineups with programming that spans continents and decades includes shows co-presented by Night Flight, Death By Audio, Creem, 100% Electronica, Gorilla Vs Bear, The Reverberation Appreciation Society, Space Flight Records, plus shows at Mohawk presented with Austin’s new Resound Presents.
We’re particularly pleased to see that LEVITATION invited some of Austin’s top acts to round out the psych, prog, noise and progressive electronic music festival. Our favorite dance punks, The Octopus Project are performing. TCC favorites, Being Dead, Ringo Deathstarr, Blushing, Holy Wave and Sun June are also on the bill, rounding an impressive slate of local artists. We’re getting giddy at the thought of psych rock fans from around the world discovering these Austin bands.
Grab tickets to LEVITATION and start planning a truly unique festival experience with your friends. LEVITATION festival is for music aficionados much like Spain’s Primavera Sound Festival.
