Suwannee Hulaween 2015 announces lineup additions
Today, Silver Wrapper and Purple Hat Productions unveil over 25 new additions to the original lineup, adding to the festival’s depth and prestige. Suwannee Hulaween challenges festival-goers to step outside the norm and explore the new, the fresh, and the worthy that will be on display throughout their attendance.
Additions include funky electronic producer The Polish Ambassador, a special live performance from electro-soul and bass heavyweights Break Science and Manic Focus as Manic Science, glitch-hop and vinyl innovator Michal Menert, experimental rock-fusion band TAUK, four-piece reggae and dub group Stick Figure, San Diego’s indie rock and dirty blues act Little Hurricane, breakout live performer Big Wild, and, from the state of Florida: Ft. Lauderdale funk & jazz jam band The Heavy Pets and Jacksonville electronic trio Greenhouse Lounge, just to name a few.
But that’s not all! For guests looking to start the party early, #HulaweenFL is hosting an onsite pre-party on Thursday, October 29th with Grateful Dead tribute act Joe Russo’s Almost Dead and are now joined by 100% improvised electronic duo EOTO, New Orleans’ filthiest funk outfit Dumpstaphunk, and Jacksonville jamband Herd of Watts.
In other exciting news, we’re happy to announce the #HulaweenFL costume theme as “Ghoul Train” (think the late ’70s-early ’80s TV hit “Soul Train” x “Monsters” or “The Addams Family”). We can’t wait to see what kind of creatively kooky costumes are on display Halloween night!
Suwannee Hulaween is hosted by seminal Colorado jamband The String Cheese Incident over Halloween weekend October 30 – November 1, 2015 at the famed Spirit of the Suwannee Music Park in Live Oak FL. Set in the midst of 800 acres of Spanish moss-draped oak and cypress along the black Suwannee River and complete with the largest bat house in the southeast US, Spirit of the Suwannee Music Park is one of the most beautiful live music venues in the country. The park also offers guest comforts including a general store, full-service restaurant, free showers, indoor bathrooms and water stations.
Festival-goers can also get excited about the return of an expanded Spirit Lake — an experiential artistic glowing menagerie of multimedia metalwork, paintings, sculptures, light projections and live performances that morphs the prehistoric-looking forest into a vivid dream-like space. With hardly any overlapping sets throughout the weekend, attendees have plenty of time to wander the mystical campgrounds abuzz with costumed fans and interactive theme camps while not missing any music they want to experience. Suwannee Hulaween will also feature theme nights, yoga, workshops and endless interactive surprises throughout the weekend.
