Re:SET, a fresh take on the multi-artist outdoor concert, is set to hit 12 cities across four US regions this summer, featuring headliners LCD Soundsystem, boygenius, and Steve Lacy.
The innovative concert series creates a unique, localized experience for fans, with each headliner curating the lineup for their respective day. boygenius will be bringing along indie standouts Clairo, Dijon, and Bartees Strange. Travelling with LCD Soundsystem are electronic artist and one-third of The xx, Jamie xx, the explosive UK rock band IDLES, bounce music pioneerBig Freedia, experimental multi-instrumentalist L’Rain, and more. Steve Lacy will keep a focus on genre-bending artists with James Blake, Toro y Moi, and Fousheé.
Re:SET was conceived as an artist and fan friendly alternative to the standard summer concert experience. Taking place over four weekends in the month of June, each weekend will see three cities in the same region hosting, with each Re:SET headliner playing each city on consecutive days (see grid below for detailed information). The concept provides artists a respite from the cookie-cutter summer itinerary of sheds and amphitheaters, while fans get a leisurely day that features full sets from every artist, on one stage with no conflicts.
“We challenged ourselves to conceive an event that would give both the artists and the fans a different experience,” said President of Global Touring and Talent at AEG Presents, Gary Gersh. “At the end of the day, they both want the same thing: great locations, incredible sound, fantastic sightlines, and the best local options for food and drinks. Re:SET is a very fairly priced, artist-driven weekend where you can hang with friends and enjoy an evening of amazing music.”
Each venue will also feature food and drinks from local restaurants, bars, and breweries that reflect the character and community of each town. Visit www.ReSetConcertSeries.com for more information.
