ELECTRIC FOREST Moves Into Day Three
Today, Electric Forest (EF) settles into day three of its 5th installment, still buzzing from an epic musical moment last night that seemed to sum up why EF is so loved. The camaraderie and magic created from the shared Electric Forest experience was palpable last night when Skrillex, guitar in hand, joined The String Cheese Incident during their encore. The rocking version of "Break on Through (To the Other Side)" was an epic musical moment indeed. But it was also a symbol of what makes Electric Forest so truly unique and loved.
The String Cheese Incident and Skrillex have met in The Forest before. In 2011, The String Cheese Incident headlined three nights at Electric Forest as they always do. Skrillex, a then unknown underground DJ, performed a late night set at one of EF's smaller stages.
Electric Forest returns for its fifth year to the Double JJ Ranch in Rothbury Michigan on June 25-28, 2015. Tickets to this year's festival sold out in record time. Hailed as one of the "20 legendary world festivals to see in your lifetime," (Distractify), Electric Forest delivers the ultimate festival experience with its unparalleled integration of music, art and community. Artists set to perform this year include The String Cheese Incident (performing 3 shows), BASSNECTAR, Skrillex, Kaskade, Flume, Big Gigantic, Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros, Wale, Galantis, Brodinski, Joe Russo's Almost Dead, Yonder Mountain String Band, Odesza, Paul Oakenfold, Lotus, Carnage, Carl Cox, G-Eazy, Flux Pavilion, Seun Kuti, Shpongle (Simon Posford DJ Set), Phantogram, Gramatik, Galactic with Macy Gray, and many more.
