Hear Music From All 75 Artists Playing Pemberton Music Festival 2015
–Written by Kevin Madert
Pack your bags kids, we’re headed to British Columbia. Pemberton Music Festival –slated for July 16-19 in Pemberton, a village about a half-hour north of Whistler, BC – released today a diverse initial lineup that should draw fans from across the musical spectrum. The bill is topped by hip-hop stars (Kendrick Lamar, Kid Cudi, Missy Elliot) alt and indie rockers (The Black Keys, Weezer, Jane’s Addiction), and Tiësto (just for the hell of it).
Other not so small highlights include The String Cheese Incident, Bassnectar, Billy Talent, Chet Faker, Duke Dumont, and Jack-Ü, who will be concluding their “Full Flex Express” tour at Pemberton alongside Zeds Dead, A$AP Ferg, Tycho, Hundred Waters, & Anna Lunoe b2b Mija.
In addition to all that music, the festival will once again feature comedians. Pemby Comedy acts include Tim & Eric, Cheech & Chong, Reggie Watts, Doug Benson, and Eric Andre, along with perhaps the most intriguing prospect on the lineup in the Air Sex Championships.
To help you (and ourselves) get acquainted with the lineup, we’ve compiled a Spotify playlist featuring all 85 music acts performing at Pemberton 2015, which you can stream below. Tickets (which go on sale Friday, April 3 at 10AM PST) and all other pertinent information can be found on the festival’s official site.
