SUMMER CAMP: ON THE ROAD TOUR

I was a real nowhere lass, sitting on my nowhere ass, making all my nowhere plans for nobody. Memorial Day weekend is supposed to be spent at Three Sisters Park in Chillicothe, IL for Summer Camp Music Festival. Two years without my big blowout weekend left me a real blind bat. I had feared when they announced an August attempt, would it even happen? Would it be safe? Would it be the same? I was unperceptive to what I used to consider my thing, my scene, festivals were my jam.

Electro-jam quintet Vintage Pistol is on a quest to make up for lost time this year with a stacked touring calendar that spans far beyond the Ozark Mountains from which they proceed. As self-proclaimed highway junkies, the thunderous rock outfit thrives in the whirlwind of dusty festival grounds and questionable roadside watering holes.

Summer Camp Music Festival is proud to present the Sunday 1-Day lineup for their 20th Anniversary celebration next month. Joining the traditional Sunday sets from both host bands moe. and Umphrey’s McGee will be performances from headliners Ween, GRiZ, Tipper, Three 6 Mafia and many more!

Summer Camp Music Festival proudly presents the final lineup additions for their 20th Anniversary celebration next month. Get ready for a 2nd set of Billy Strings, plus Dirty Heads, Subtronics, Death Kings (Ryan Stasik, Mike Gantzer, & Mikey Carubba), Ghost-Note, Karina Rykman, KellerSquabi, lespecial, Maggie Rose, MonoNeon, Saxsquatch, & more as they join an already stacked lineup.

These performers join the August 20th - 22nd dates along with the majority of the festival’s original 2020 lineup.
