On September 27 and 28, Bridgeport, Connecticut welcomes Soundside Music Festival back to Seaside Park. The two-day extravaganza features a blend of industry veterans, modern icons, and this year's biggest names in music, like The Killers, Hozier, Weezer, and Vampire Weekend. Each 10-act day features performances from megastars with no overlapping sets so that fans can experience all of their favorite artists on the same day without sacrifice.
Saturday: The weekend begins with alternative rock acts The Killers and Weezer. Known for their captivating headliner sets, this duo is primed to bring the energy. Keep your eye on the undercard, as Saturday features many artists creating the soundtrack for 2025. Djo, the musical project of actor and producer Joe Keery, is set to release The Crux this Friday, pulling inspiration from The Beatles and the 60s. In March, indie darling and author Japanese Breakfast released their new album For Melancholy Brunettes (& sad women), a collection of hypnotic and intimate tracks. 5-piece female and non-binary-fronted band The Last Dinner Party brings their mesmerizing baroque-esque sound and look. English singer-songwriter Rachel Chinouriri is on tour with Sabrina Carpenter and embarking on her first-ever North American headlining tour this spring, making Soundside her first performance in CT.
Sunday: Headliners Hozier and Vampire Weekend are sure to end the festival with a bang. Hozier is responsible for the electric radio hits "Too Sweet" and "Nobody's Soldier," as well as the viral yell he does in his collaboration song with last year's Soundside headliner Noah Kahan in "Northern Attitude (with Hozier)." Once again, the undercard pulls its weight with funk-pop princess Remi Wolf, the introspective Chelsea Cutler, folksy Gigi Perez, and TikTok sensation turned vulnerable musician Alex Warren. After stopping at New England's Fenway in June, Perez and Hozier will reunite at the fest.
