The first 1/2 day of Electric Forest was a great success! The Rothbury, Michigan weather held up for what turned out to be a beautiful evening of music across seven spectacular stages. Known for their beauty inside and out, the forest and its people were in fine form.

The Ranch Arena started the party with sets from Marvel Years, Paper Diamond, Duke Dumont, and Major Lazer, while the famed Sherwood Court hosted The Polish Ambassador, Savoy, and The Disco Biscuits. Despite some technical difficulties, tDB were on point and delivered a smashing set! Kamasi Washington, 12th Planet, and EOTO crushed the Jubilee, while music ensued throughout the night’s various hosts.

Friday will see headlining performances from The String Cheese Incident, STS9, Papadosio, and a “This Song Is Sick Secret Set,” along with a whole lot more!
