Channel Tres

Channel Tres aka Sheldon Young is a songwriter, rapper, singer, DJ, and producer whose output as a collaborator and headlining artist has ranged from left-field pop to house music heavily inspired by the form's Midwest originators. His music style blends experimental hip-hop, west coast hip-hop, and Detroit techno. Involved in music at a young age, he began with drums, and continued on until he eventually returned to the West Coast to pursue his calling. Among Young's first major moves were credits for behind-the-scenes work on Bridge's "Break the Rules" and DUCKWRTH's An XTRA UUGLY Mixtape

Franc Moody

Listening to London band Franc Moody’s songs you'll hear salt shakers and mugs, dripping radiators, the sound of someone zipping their flies, and their own family playing strings. It's this kind of DIY sound design and attention to detail that has made the new London duo such a curious and captivating proposition. Franc Moody's sound is contemporary funk, awash with electronic inspiration, human touches, and throbbing grooves. Like Daft Punk and Jamiroquai before them, they draw from the sounds, styles and techniques of funk, disco and soul while simultaneously threading in electronic influences of the here and now. And over their short lifespan as a band they've shown a masterful knack for creating rich and textured bangers, like "Dopamine" (which has amassed over 2 million streams) and "Dance Moves" (over 1 million streams). Franc Moody see themselves as a collective, and have countless members once you include the musicians, guest vocalists, producers and animators that all play a part in contributing to their music and live performances that have gained a cult following.

Drama

DRAMA is the multicultural collaboration between producer Na'el Shehade's chic Chicago house-infused production style, and vocalist Via Rosa whose soulful delivery is inspired by the improvisational nature of jazz and playful patterns of hip-hop and bossa nova. The duo play to the complementary dynamics of their unlikely pairing by blurring the lines between R&B and dance-pop, heartbreak and bliss. Since a chance meeting in 2014 leading to the creation of DRAMA, the duo has bootstrapped a subtle rise on their own terms, self-releasing several EPs and mapping multiple tours with Midwestern grit. In early jam sessions the chemistry was clear; Rosa's soulful delivery interlocked with Shehade's chic Chicago house-infused production style. A lovesick sound emerged over two EPs, Gallows in 2016 and Lies After Love in 2018, and continued on to their debut album Dance Without Me in January 2020.

Flamingosis

Flamingosis splices together old school soul, wild funk, and D.I.Y. electronic with a radiant message meant for any moment.

Not to mention, he graced the bills of festivals such as Austin City Limits, Electric Forest, Okeechobee, Holy Ship!, and Voodoo Music + Arts, to name a few. After generating 100 million streams, attracting 100K cumulative social media followers, and receiving acclaim from Pitchfork, MTV, ThisSongIsSick, and many more, the New Jersey-raised and Brooklyn-based artist and producer embeds an important affirmation within the framework of his first full-length album in four years, Daymaker, encapsulating Brazilian bounce, tropical house flavor, and chilled beats on lead single “Wild Summer.”

Festival Guidelines

o DON'T dress like authentic-looking law enforcement, fire department, or security personnel.While it might seem like a fun idea to mimic the outfits of our Santa Barbara PD, believe us, you won't get far. Allow law enforcement to do their jobs, so everybody has the best and safest experience possible!

o DON'T apply full-face makeup that makes you unrecognizable. We've got to be able to recognize that face on your ID to let you in-otherwise. How do we know it's really you?

o DON'T bring weapons or weapon accessories.

o DON'T include violent props. This includes crops, whips, ropes, chains, metal spikes or tethers.

o DON'T wear giant blow-up suits or props.

o DON'T incorporate offensive slogans or themes.

o DON'T wear Native American headdresses. We say it time and time again: It's cultural appropriation, so don't do it.

o DO get imaginative. As long as you're dressing within the guidelines, you're good to go!

o DO make it comfortable. When picking your costume, keep in mind mobility and stamina-as well as on/off ease in the bathroom. Trust us.

o DO get spooky. Ghosts, ghouls, skeletons -you name it!

o DO make sure you have a sturdy costume. We recommend testing out wearing your costume while dancing before heading to the event.

o DO bring a jacket. Halloween tends to get a tad chilly at night, so we recommend incorporating a jacket (or cloak, cape, etc.) into your costume.

o DO have fun with it!
