Featuring Live Performances By

Almost Monday

San Diego trio Almost Monday has grown from surf shop beginnings into a global indie-alt force, building momentum with a Billboard Alternative Airplay #1, 1B combined streams, 50+ syncs, sold-out headline dates and a high-energy live show that has taken them from major festivals worldwide to tours with AJR, The Driver Era, The Band CAMINO, Young the Giant and Cold War Kids.

Dylan Cotrone

Dylan Cotrone makes feel-good, guitar-driven alt-pop that blends the laid-back spirit of Sublime and Jack Johnson with modern hooks, nostalgic storytelling, and coastal energy. After building an audience online through viral covers and original songs, he broke through with tracks like “Lazy,” “Cigarette,” and the Dog House EP, while recent singles “Far Out” and “Whoa Nelly” have fueled growing momentum across streaming, radio, and live shows.

Maris

MARIS first discovered planet Earth in 1999 while traveling through space on an expedition for life, love, and adventure. She hitched a ride on a comet to Los Angeles in 2021 and stayed to become a pop sensation. Her mission: connect with listeners through candid storytelling and an ‘80s-inflected pop universe with danceable beats. Best experienced live, MARIS ensures all in attendance feel free to be their happiest, truest, and most out-of-this-world selves.

Sol Chyld

Camden, New Jersey’s own Sol ChYld, may be relatively new to the game but is already making her mark on hip-hop through inventive rhymes, throwback beats, and all the remarkable determination of the greats. Blazing her path, Sol moves with a razor-sharp tact and intelligence well beyond her years, following in the footsteps of fellow Garden State rap icons like Rah Digga, Queen Latifah, and Lauryn Hill

Shelailai

Shelailai is a Canadian/Caribbean Alternative Pop Rapper based in Los Angeles. Blending sharp lyricism with a clean genre-fluid sound, her music pulls directly from real life relationships, emotions, and the process of growing into yourself. She started building early momentum online via TikTok, turning heads with her fast delivery and meaningful writing, but it’s on stage where it fully lands. Shelailai thrives in front of the crowd, bringing a natural energy and a real love for rap to every live audience.

Celebrating creativity, collaboration, and the power of live events.
