TheUntz.com is thrilled to be presenting the Hummingbird Stage at SONIC BLOOM this year. Not only are we privileged to be working with one of the premier festivals in the country, but the music and magic taking place on our stage is second-to-none, breaking new boundaries and pushing the envelope of what transformational festivals can do.
The psychedelic bass scene, which is at the heart of Bloom, and has been nurtured by its organizers, really grasps its roots this year. For the first time in its history, a psytrance block will hit the Hummingbird Stage. Sonic Bloom faves Kalya Scintilla and Desert Dwellers are on the lineup, but its members will reach back to their original psytrance projects, which really form the foundation of where psychedelic dub and sacred bass stem. MerKaba, Yaygon Lamagaia's project will take the stage, as well as Amani and Treavor Moontribe of Desert Dwellers. It will be a glimpse of the full moon parties out in the desert that lay at the heart of this vibrant scene.
Following the psytrance spectacular is the Jumpsuit Records showcase. One of the most exciting and innovative tours of this spring was The Polish Ambassador's cross-country trek with his crew. Ayla Nereo, and her dual project with David Sugalski, Wildlight, will be joined by the madcap trumpter SaQi, and his brilliant beats.
So many more interesting and imaginative artists will be joining us on the Hummingbird Stage, and we're so lucky to be a part of it all.
Sonic Bloom is breaking in a new location this year, American Safari Ranch in South Park, CO. The festival will take place June 19-22, and features headliners Tipper, EOTO, ZILLA, Michal Menert Big Band, Random Rab, Zoogma, and so many more incredible acts.
Expanding to a capacity three times that of past years, the festival has expanded to epic proportions, adding heavy-hitter Simon Posford for a Shpongle DJ set just a couple weeks back. The laundry list of transformational acts is unmatched anywhere on earth, and this year's festival is set to blow your hair back.
