On Sunday, September 29th from 11:00am – 6:30pm, Folsom Street Events' annual Folsom Street Fair presents a hugely impressive line-up.
The nonprofit event producers hope to showcase a broad presentation of music with 'a little something for everyone.' Folsom Street Fair will feature only one live "main" stage, continuing the fierce momentum of featuring live indie music and electronic dance music as a highpoint of the fair.
According to Folsom Street Events Executive Director Demetri Moshoyannis, "I am in love with every single one of our Main Stage acts! They are offering up an impressive range of alternative music – from neo-folk and rock and roll to electro-pop and four-on-the-floor house music. It's an extremely diverse offering that I believe will appeal to a vast range of our fair-goers. I hope everyone discovers some new music!"
This year's main stage headliners are:
Hercules and Love Affair is a musical project from New York-based DJ Andy Butler, who gives us a new take on classic disco and house anthems while showcasing some of the best up-and-coming vocalists in the industry.
Miami Horror is one of the top acts from Australia that best characterizes the Nu-Disco dance genre, taking influences from dance-pop artists of the 1970's and 1980's as well as progressive rock acts and combining it with modern production techniques from styles such as house music and classic disco.
Light Asylum is heavily influenced by 1980's music, especially the works by the likes of Grace Jones and Alison Moyet. It was the mutual love of Clan of Xymox that brought Shannon and Bruce together. Light Asylum's style incorporates elements of industrial and post-punk music into something uniquely formidable. Shannon's rich contralto brings a complementary humanity to their cold electronic beats.
Joining the headliners at the 10th Street Main Stage are other indie and electronic artists from around the world and here at home.
