The newly reformed Sublime will headline the eleventh annual Levitate Music & Arts Festival in Marshfield, MA this summer. The festival is scheduled to take place from July 5th through July 7th at the Marshfield Fairgrounds. Joining Sublime at the top of the festival bill is Lake Street Dive, Mt. Joy, Tash Sultana and Dirty Heads, with a wide range of other popular artists filling out the rest of he weekend.
Upon receiving an inside tip that Sublime, the 90s surf-punk icons that defined a generation were rumored to reunite, Levitate organizers moved quickly to arrange that Sublime would take the stage for their first and only live Northeast performance at Levitate Music & Arts Festival. The band features original members Bud Gaugh and Eric Wilson with Jakob Nowell, the son of late founding member Bradley Nowell, assuming front man duties. “Playing our music is the closest thing possible to playing with my old buddy Brad,” noted Wilson recently.
In addition to this very special headlining act, the lineup also includes powerhouse female fronted acts Lake Street Dive and Tash Sultana on Saturday, indie rockers Mt. Joy on Friday, and a star studded dynamic lineup ranging from favorites Dirty Heads to hometown heroes The Elovaters. The virtuosic prowess of performers like Grace Bowers and Cory Wong will also be on full display this weekend. And the authentic Americana of Charley Crockett along with rising starts like Karina Rykman only adds to the incredible and diverse talent at this year’s festival.
Along with the world-class musical talent, Levitate will host an eclectic, eco-driven and family friendly event with a blend of artisan vendors, dozens of local food trucks, and wide ranging experiences from live art installations to kids activities including the return of the kids zone run by Levitate Camp Counselors which encourage creativity and a shared love of the outdoors with the next generation – a value at the very core of Levitate’s mission.
