April 13, 2017 — Summer Set Music & Camping Festival (SSMF) is thrilled to announce the 2017 artist lineup for its sixth annual installment! The festival will return to the Somerset Amphitheater on Friday, August 11 through Sunday, August 13, where attendees are invited to experience a truly unforgettable weekend of camping and fun under the sun in the picturesque fields of Somerset, Wisconsin.
This year’s headliners include the infamous bass music duo ZEDS DEAD (Friday), coming hot off the heels of their highly acclaimed 2016 debut LP Northern Lights, the chart-topping pioneer of dance-pop ZEDD (Saturday), heading to Summer Set fresh off his ACLU benefit concert, and the undisputed master of funk GRiZ (Sunday), still reeling from the success of his 2016-released studio album Good Will Prevail.
A wide spectrum of heavyweight acts include hybrid hip hop pair RUN THE JEWELS, deadly South African beat scientists DIE ANTWOORD, grandfather of trap music RL GRIME, Canadian dubstep powerhouse DATSIK, fiery up-and-coming hip hop star POST MALONE, champion of melodic dance music SEVEN LIONS, and energetic UK bass producer ZOMBOY.
Additional notable acts include soft-serve extraordinaire and rising dance music hero SLUSHII, vomitstep pioneer SNAILS, live electronic trio KEYS N KRATES, mysterious masked house wizard MALAA, acclaimed genre-bending beat maker responsible for the hit single “Thief” OOKAY, twisted scientist of dark and thrilling creations WOLFGANG GARTNER, ghoulish experimenter of bass music’s many forms GHASTLY, and founder of the West Coast’s HARD series DESTRUCTO. Alongside them fans will experience performances by soulful live beat crafter BIG WILD, coming off his celebrated 2017 EP Invincible, Brooklyn’s own explorer of futuristic feels and fire beats SPACE JESUS, the superman of off-the-wall bass music bliss BLEEP BLOOP, groove-blasting trumpet maestro RUSS LIQUID and many more!
Known for showcasing an eclectic mix of hip hop, indie, and jam-style artists alongside some of electronic dance music’s most sought after producers and DJs, Summer Set continues to deliver a legendary and diverse lineup year after year. In 2016, Summer Set provided all-in-one ticketing options for the first time ever, and this year, festival-goers will have another chance to lock in their festival tickets and camping accommodations with one swift payment.
