Also, if that wasn’t enough, be sure to catch acts from Dirtwire, Opiuo, LP Giobbi (performing a Dead House set), Gone Gone Beyond, Manic Focus, The Main Squeeze, Polyrhythmics, Maddy O’Neal, Moontricks. Tripp St., Frameworks, and more.
Along with all these jaw-dropping acts, Cascade Equinox is working hard to offer a wide variety of experiential programming and activations throughout the whole festival weekend!
