Future Islands (I hadn't heard of them until I saw them on the line up, and started listening to them before the fest, and fell in love. And then when I saw them live, they blew me away. They translate their studio work amazingly on stage, even better. Plus they played my favorite song, A dream of you and me.)
Kaiser Chiefs (I have been a fan of them since high school, one of the first bands that I got into without my mom's influence. haha. So glad to have seen them live. The lead singer, Ricky, is a maniac on stage. I got to touch him!!!!!! He ran into the crowd, climbed the sound booth, a non-stop hurricane.)
Little Dragon (they are amazing on stage. played a song from their latest album I really enjoyed, Killing Me. And the last song they played (I forgot the name), they remixed it for this super tribal vibe, everyone dancing to the beat, like a post-modern tribe, beautiful, and the singer has an enchanting stage presence),
and Girls in Hawaii (they ended with my favorite song, Flavor, and brilliantly played a great live version of it, I thought my ears were going to explode. The kind of band that you'd show someone who thinks music died after the 70s. )
