5 Acts You Shouldn’t Miss at CRSSD Festival Spring ’17

/in , /by

Taking place in the warm and sunny San Diego on March 3rd and 4th, CRSSD Festival has steered away from the mainstream line-ups and major headliners that are most prevalent in the world of electronic music, especially in America. Although headliners like Duke Dumont and Flume can still be heard on the radio, majority of the artists on this eclectic and diverse line-up prefer intimate settings and unanticipated sets.

For the last couple of years, CRSSD Festival has taken to Waterfront Park on the North San Diego Bay for a mix of house and techno twice a year. The mature crowd welcomes the quality talent from all over the world looking to discover new and innovative artists that they may of not been previously familiar with.

Although many of the artists on this line-up are quite familiar names in the world of house and techno, some might not be so familiar. We’ve put together 5 must-see acts from this year’s lineup that you may or may have never heard of. Since we’re always looking to discover new artists, feel free to voice your opinion on who you are looking forward to seeing at CRSSD Festival this Spring!

As scheduled, CRSSD Festival has released its Spring 2017 roster and its possibly its best one to date.

As per previous formats, the San Diego waterfront festival continues with its mission to provide an eclectic experience with emphasis on more “underground” sounds of house and techno, as well as deeper strands of electronic music that aren’t found on other festival main stages.

Positioned at Waterfront Park in the city’s downtown area, CRSSD sold out both of 2016’s editions and with this lineup release looks set to repeat the feat for the third time in a row. Live acts this coming March 4th and 5th include Blood Orange, AlunaGeorge, Recondite, Bob Moses and Dusky making their live debut on the West Coast. Highlights in the house and techno realm include Dystopian boss RĂždhĂ„d, Innervisions’ Âme, Scotland’s ever-popular Jackmaster, crafty selector Midland, the wizardry genius of Damian Lazarus, CRSSD alum Skream, 2manydjs and an extended set by Seth Troxler b2b Eats Everything. On the more diverse side of the lineup, the Ocean View stage is set to feature Flume, Snakehips, Giraffage and Duke Dumont.

On top of its music programming and idyllic location, the 21+ festival has also become popular for its craft beer selection, top-tier local gourmet food options and impeccable mixology program.

Tickets will be available on December 27th at noon via CRSSD’s Official Website.
