Performing Artists at the Summer Festival SUMMER SONIC (SummerSoni) 2016

Just Ain’t Gonna Work OutMayer Hawthorne

Mayer Hawthorne – Maybe So Maybe No (Official Video HD)

Mayer Hawthorne, America’s hit tune maker.

You can’t quite tell if it’s old or new or what it even is, but it’s insanely good!!! His songs, which even made producers say so, have a mysterious charm: they sound nostalgic yet carry a certain freshness.

Little EaseMirror Trap

The Mirror Trap – Little Ease (Official)

The Mirror Trap, touted as a rising newcomer from the UK.

Judging by their YouTube views, they’re still relatively low, so it feels like they’re just getting started.

Still, as you’d expect from a hyped new act, they’re undeniably cool and have a straightforward appeal.

Will this year’s Summer Sonic be the springboard that sends their popularity skyrocketing? Definitely one to watch.

MØ – Kamikaze (Official Video)

MØ is a singer-songwriter from Denmark.

Her bright singing voice is striking, and this song has a laid-back feel with a lovely, relaxing vibe.

Her other tracks vary—some are a bit more subdued—so this is a great chance to explore and listen to a variety of her songs.
