The Big What? is back this year for its seventh year and slated to take over Pittsboro, North Carolina, toward the tail-end of summer. Running from August 16th through 18th, the festival serves as a home base to jam band up-and-comers BIG Something. BIG Something will play all three nights of their festival in addition to performances by other favorite acts from the jam scene. The recent announcement of the full festival lineup reveals that the weekend will also feature performances by Sunsquabi, TAUK, Cory Wong of Vulfpeck, Consider The Source, Funk You, Joe Hertler & The Rainbow Seekers, Dr. Bacon, Becca Stevens, and many more, plus secret late night sets by mystery artists.

As the band shares in a press release:

“We are really excited about The Big What? this year. BIG Something will perform more sets than ever before and we’re already working on some great new material and surprises to debut at the festival. We really love getting creative with our fans and turning the festival into one big art project. This year we hope to take that creativity to a new level.”

Last week, BIG Something released their 5th studio album, The Otherside, a follow-up to 2017’s Tumbleweed, the band’s most critically-acclaimed release to date. BIG Something will celebrate the release with a two-night performance at Greenfield Lake Amphitheater in Wilmington, NC during their The Big What? Wilmington event on April 27 & 28.
