After a two-year hiatus, Desert Daze is back and ready to transform Lake Perris, CA, into a musical paradise from October 10-13, 2024. Since its move to the scenic lakeside location in 2018, Desert Daze has become synonymous with eclectic and immersive music experiences. The 2024 edition promises to be no different, boasting a lineup that spans the sonic spectrum from psych rock to hip-hop, electronic, jazz, and beyond.
This year's festival marks a triumphant return following the acclaimed 2022 installment. The 2024 Desert Daze Artist Transmission features an impressive array of artists set to perform on the main stage, ensuring a diverse and electrifying experience for all attendees. Headlining the festival is modern-day garage rock icon Jack White, who recently surprise-released his vinyl-only album, No Name. Fans can also look forward to the ethereal sounds of next-gen shoegaze torchbearers Cigarettes After Sex, fresh off two sold-out nights at LA’s Kia Forum. Philadelphia’s skyrocketing singer-songwriter Alex G and the reunited prog rock masters The Mars Volta round out the headliners, promising unforgettable performances.
Over three days and nights, Desert Daze will host a stellar lineup featuring hip-hop legends De La Soul, Souls Of Mischief, and Danny Brown; the unparalleled bass virtuosity of Thundercat; and hyperpop pioneers 100 Gecs. The festival's eclectic mix continues with indie rock icon Liz Phair, folk-rock favorites Fleet Foxes, stoner metal giants Sleep, and the inimitable electronic showman Marc Rebillet. Other notable acts include Molchat Doma, The Kills, Floating Points, Power Trip, Beach Fossils, DIIV, Unwound, Converge, Otoboke Beaver, Charlotte Adigery + Bolis Pupul, Say She She, Wisp, Hinds, and Sasami.
Adding to the excitement, Desert Daze 2024 will feature several special appearances and unique performances. Original riot grrrl and punk-rock heroine Kathleen Hanna will read from her New York Times bestselling memoir, Rebel Girl: My Life as a Feminist Punk, and engage in a conversation with Cedric Bixler-Zavala of The Mars Volta and At The Drive-In. Death From Above 1979 will perform their debut album, You're A Woman, I'm A Machine, in its entirety to celebrate its 20th anniversary. Additionally, Temples will commemorate the 10th anniversary of their debut album, Sun Structures, with a special performance.
