Okay ya’ll… festivals are back and they are GOIN’ HARD this year… yes, total pun intended! Powered by Insomniac, HARD Summer Music Festival is joining the bandwagon of lineup announcements and they’ve officially released they are returning this year in San Bernardino, CA with an expanded blueprint and an incredibly stacked lineup to compete. Big names in the world of rap, hip hop and EDM top the lineup, featuring Future, Rezz, DJ Snake, Malaa and so many more!
Set your notifications for these tickets, people — they will go fast!
A noticeable delight in this year’s lineup is the total range of genre in our EDM artists. DJ Snake will be playing his headlining set b2b with dance master Malaa. Our other mainstage-er, Rezz, has defined ‘HARD’ on her new singles, released during the past year’s pandemic state: “Sacrificial (feat PVRIS)”, “Orbit” and, my personal favorite, “Someone Else” with Graves. Dillion Francis is also on the top of the bill, undoubtedly to debut live his new singles “Places” (with Drove) and “Be Somebody” (with Evie Irie). Other mentionable names in the dubstep/trap field of electronic music are RL Grime b2b with BAAUER (wow, I can not WAIT to get my Harlam Shake on!!). Skream! is bringing it back with the old school that’ll take you back to the gold ol’ days of 2010-2012 dubstep, smooth jazz house and even some disco vibes in there. Another honorable mention that we see in EDM land on the 2021 lineup is the self proclaimed ‘Hulk Gang’, made up of housemasters Valentino Kahn and 4B… another wild back-to-back set you absolutely cannot miss!
