At the festival there will be merch and food vendors, so try to check them out on breaks in between sets. Talking about One Love Cali sets… Journey with me us as we feature a few artist worth looking at that will play this weekend.

Mike Love

Brought up on the island of Oahu, Hawaii, Mike Love is at the cutting edge of breaking musical boundaries! Mike Love combines his spirituality and message-based reggae and Rastafari music with progressive and classic rock sounds. That, as well as breaker music with pop, R&B, soul, blues, jazz and others. As Mike Love would proclaim himself, peace is at the center of his music.

Rebelution

This California reggae band from Santa Barbara needs no introduction. Rebelution keeps on being a visiting juggernaut with sold-out shows at any setting they get the opportunity to play. Their first-ever Grammy nomination was in the class of Best Reggae Album for Falling into Place. Not halting there, Rebelution caught up with Free Reign, which, similar to their past five studio albums, did not disappoint!

Soja

Soja shaped in a D.C. area; and regardless of their prosperity, they generally like to recollect where they began. They never want to lose the genuine enchantment of working together with their 8 piece band members. With the majority of this, Soja was able to make a devoted fan base of more than 7 million online followers and 300 million YouTube views. After two Grammy nominations, Soja keeps on pioneering trails with its music and one of a kind sound. A genuine case of this can be seen on their latest album Poetry in Motion.

Iration

Finally, Iration is an alternative/reggae group from Isla Vista, CA. They are “all about luv” with their profoundly established reggae impact and components of rock and pop music. A large portion of the band members met while growing up in Hawaii yet reconnected in Santa Barbara in 2004. At the point when Micah Brown joined the group, the band shaped and took off into musical stardom.

Should One Love Cali Reggae Fest come to a close and you’re still tingling for more, don’t stress as there will be after parties occurring on a boat on Saturday and Sunday evening! Saturday night’s after party will feature none of that Collie Buddz and Sunday night will highlight Fiji.

That will remain a mystery like a hidden pot of gold at the end of the rainbow which we will be finding real soon.

Lightning in a Bottle hosted by the DoLab will return but with a couple of modifications. The festival reported some huge changes today. The first is that it will occur 2 weeks sooner on May 8th – 13th. The event has usually been held toward the end of May over Memorial Day Weekend. This made it overlap with other music events, as BottleRock, Sunset Music Festival, the now dropped Sasquatch Music Festival, and others. Presently with the dates moving there are less clashes and opens up a list of option for hardcore festival goers.

The other major change that was reported is that it will once be a change of venues. In any case, they have not yet declared where the new location will be.

An excerpt of the message published on the LIB website:

“We absolutely love this new venue and think you all will too. The space is an improvement in nearly every way and we appreciate your patience as we finalize everything for a fantastic new and improved LIB experience.

If this news comes as a shock, we apologize. Venue challenges are an inevitable part of throwing festivals, and the best we can do is move through them as gracefully as possible. Though we were planning on having LIB in Bradley for many years to come, we also recognized that San Antonio Recreation Area was far from perfect (the lake has receded away from the festival grounds again). So, we are embracing this change as a catalyst to evolve, grow and seek greener pastures. Planning is in full swing and we already see many wonderful opportunities for upgrading the LIB experience at its new home and will be hard at work for the next few months creating this new LIB wonderland.”

Early bird tickets will be on sale soon. Stay tuned here for updates.
