Summer Solstice Indie Music Festival returns June 21 and 22 at Bicentennial Riverfront Park in Yorkville.
The band Silverada, formerly Mike and the Moonpies, will headline both nights of the Summer Solstice Indie Music Festival in Yorkville June 21-22 at Bicentennial Riverfront Park.
The Vandoliers, a Texas band that opened for Bowling for Soup and Less Than Jake on their European tour in February, performs at 8 p.m. June 21. They’re part of a lineup that includes Silverada, Elizabeth Cook, Rob Leines, Taylor Hunnicutt, Jason Eady, Midnight River Choir, John Till, Eli Howard and Greater Good, Tony Logue and the 184 and the Jeff Bearcat Bunch.
“We’ve kind of raised the bar on the event to be more of the traditional festivals you’re seeing pop up,” Ingemunson said. “Especially with these Americana and outlaw country artists. With Sturgill Simpson and Zach Bryan and Tyler Childers, you’re seeing this huge movement of Americana and country artists. The reach of these artists now, it’s astounding to see. So the festival has kind of evolved to be more in line with what you’re seeing in music festivals in general.
“That was a big leap last year to transition to that type of format,” he said. “The performances are better. Just the overall vibe of the festival is better. It’s more cohesive. This year, the bar has been raised even higher.” “She’s been on the Grand Ole Opry over 400 times, she’s been on the ‘Letterman’ show four times,” he said. “She’s so well-known within the industry and she’s a fantastic performer, too.”“There’s a new part of the park called Riverfront Park East that both Summer Solstice and Oktoberfest utilizes. It’s just a beautiful area of the park right along the river,” he said. “It’s a beautiful setting.”
