Beach Goth Reveals Fifth Annual 2016 Lineup

Beach Goth, the mystical place that we consider a little slice of heaven, is returning this year October 22nd - 23rd relocating to the beautiful Oak Canyon Park in Orange County, California. This is Beach Goth's fifth annual celebration with Costa Mesa based headliners and curators, The Growlers putting on the entire event.

Today, the festival we highly look up to has revealed their 2016 lineup plans and let us tell you.... it's juicy. We're happy to announce Beach Goth's headliners including The Growlers, Bon Iver, Justice DJ Set, and Gucci Mane. It's refreshing to see artists like The Growlers sticking to their roots as well as providing a stellar lineup of international acts such as James Blake, RL Grime, Violent Femmes, TLC, Nicolas Jaar, Albert Hammond Jr., Orlando local XXYYXX and along with many more. View the lineup in it's entirety below!

Beach Goth has taken place at the legendary Observatory Grounds for the past four years and has now successfully moved to a new home in Oak Canyon Park. We're absolutely positive we'll see larger crowds, bad ass art, along with a number of new activities and interactive opportunities all throughout the fest. If you're as big of a Growlers fan as we are and love everything about Beach Goth, this should be a no brainer. For everyone else, look into all these artists and contemplate on where you're going to be third weekend of October. Find all of your ticket, travel, and parking info here.

Danny Brown Shares New Music Video

Detroit based hip hop artist Danny Brown has released a new single "When It Rain" along with a new music video produced by Paul White. The video gives a unique point of view for what seems to be a series of home footage clips with VHS style editing.

The single "When It Rain" is an exclusive track off Brown's upcoming 2016 album which follows his 2013 release, 'Old'. The new video has been directed by Mimi Cave and features a number of quirky dancing clips and psychedelic visuals. Peep the vid below.

We Love You Orlando

On this heartfelt day, it is extremely difficult to bring myself to write anything about the largest mass shooting in American history. The attack has unfortunately taken place here in our hometown Orlando, Florida and we cannot thank the community enough for it's constant work and dedication to help build this city back to what it truly is, a city of love, unity, respect, equality, kindness, and most importantly a city full of citizens with some of the largest hearts we have ever encountered.

Holiday of Music will like to thank each and every one of you for keeping our city of Orlando in your thoughts and prayers. We are eternally grateful for the world's considerate concern and awareness of this horrid event done to our community. We are hurting, crying, questioning, and confused but most importantly WE ARE ONE. We are made up of the same characteristics that create human life, there are simply no other factors to look at when we question how to treat one another.

We thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Please join Holiday of Music while we attend a candlelight vigil today at Lake Eola Park and tomorrow afternoon at the Dr. Phillip's Center Downtown Orlando. We will also be attending all upcoming live concerts this week hosted at The Social. Please show your support and thank you again for such a phenomenal response within our community.
