Resonate Suwannee “24 Drops the Lineup

Resonate animalia

Do you even remember that far back? Last year’s Resonate was a category five, feeder band of slick, Florida fun. There was Pedro’s grit and slide, Mateo’s mobile music wagon and block party. Kamp Happiness perched alongside the Bill Monroe Pavilion with a motley crew of utterly demented individuals. Acoustic music allowed all night, just mind the cajon. It was the Suwannee crowd in full force and don’t look now but it’s coming back for more.

Resonate Suwannee Music & Arts Festival is set to make its highly anticipated return to the illustrious Spirit of Suwannee Music Park (SOSMP) in Live Oak, FL, for a three-day celebration from April 4th to 6th, 2024. Building upon the success of its previous three editions, Resonate Suwannee promises an extraordinary musical journey with an exceptional lineup curated in collaboration with instrumental jamtronica trailblazers STS9. Thank goodness for Florida in the spring. Resonate Suwannee “24 drops the lineup. Welcome home.

This year’s headliners represent a convergence of musical genres, featuring an eclectic fusion of electronic, funk, and jam artists. Attendees will enjoy four sets by STS9, the atmospheric sounds of Tycho, the progressive stylings of Papadosio, and a special DJ set by the dynamic funk duo Chromeo. The lineup further showcases the visionary sounds of Dimond Saints, the funky rhythms of Dumpstaphunk, and the unparalleled energy of Ghost-Note.
