It is beyond an honor to be a part of a lineup of artists that’s undoubtedly helped craft my sound. Having the opportunity to share a lineup with some of my biggest inspirations is a feeling I’ll never grow tired of. Catch me whomping and stomping at Yheti’s set, and catch me having my mind melted by G Jones. Not to mention being surrounded by so many artists I have the privilege of calling friends. Seriously, don’t sleep on the undercard at this fest!

I’m undoubtedly the most excited to see all the world building that’s been put into this festival. I can’t wait to step through those entrance gates, and be teleported to a world unknown. I’m excited to step out of reality, and into a fantasy world.

Whether it’s your first year attending Okeechobee Arts & Music festival or you’ve been going every year since it started, there always continues to be a steady stream of both unbelievable new and returning freeform talent flowing through their lineup. Sometimes it’s impossible to decide who to go see, who to stay up into the late hours of the night to catch, and especially what sets to choose when it seems like your entire schedule conflicts. Whether you check out some of these sets or all of them, each and every artist on this list is guaranteed to pump out some killer tunes Okeechobee weekend:

Griz- If you have not gotten the chance to catch a Griz set yet, definitely do not skip out on this one. Combining a jaw dropping mix of uptempo melodic beats, heavy drops and some of the craziest saxophone riffs you might ever hear, anything he plays is guaranteed to keep you on your feet and dancing the entire time. 

Eprom- Looking for something on the weirder side? You don’t want to miss Eprom’s set Thursday. This immaculate bass artist is huge in the bass scene right now and has done nothing but impress especially after his latest heavy hitter of a release with G Jones. Bringing all of the energy to the first night of Okeechobee, Eprom will deliver all of the weird bleep bloops and alien noises your heart desires and more!

Clozee- Known for both her euphoric uptempo and melodic downtempo sounds as well as her immense amount of talent on the violin, Clozee is another artist on this lineup that brings something special to each set. Her amazing combination of bass music accompanied by live instrumentals is an experience you don’t want to miss live. If you happened to hear her recent collaboration with Griz, you already know how euphoric this set is about to be. If not strap in because you’re about to be taken on an auditory ride of a lifetime!

Black Carl- This artist is sure to bring both the drum and bass and experimental heat to his late night set on Saturday! Whether it be with his deep bass drops, high energy beats, or funky rhythms, this artist combines all of these elements to showcase an spectacular and holistic freeform set that will round out your night perfectly.

Of The Trees- Combining some of the most vibrant melodic baselines with some crazy weird and nasty bass drops, Of The Trees will not only bring some stellar vibes, but also leave a permanent bassface on each and every listener. This artist never ever misses when it comes to his live sets and this set will not be anything short of a banger!

EAZYBAKED- If you missed their set at EDC, do not miss out on this duo’s set this weekend. Known for always bringing electric energy to their sets, they have quite a few different sets and settings you can see them at. Without a doubt, catch their EAZYBAKED & Friends set as well as their main set because you never know who these artists will bring out! You will not regret catching any of their sets because they always pack every second of their sets with heaters from start to finish.

NotLö-  As a fan favorite deep dub artist right now, NotLö will be bringing all the heat on Sunday. Her sets never disappoint in a combo of both sub heavy wubs and high energy uptempo bass music that is an experience you should never sleep on. If you are a Deep Dark and Dangerous fan, this set is a must-catch! Also, don’t miss the legendary NotLö b2b Veil set going later on in the afternoon!

Saka- As one of Saka’s first festival premieres, he is going to start your Friday off in the best way possible with some ridiculous nasty bass music by the water. As an artist who has mastered the combination of atmospheric downtempo beats and high energy sound, you will have your body rocked to the max with this one. If you are looking for an auditory experience like no other, make sure to get up early on Friday to check this one out.

A Hundred Drums– This up and coming artist has been an absolute heavy hitter in the scene lately. A Hundred Drums has been another one of many incredible female artists killing the bass music game lately with her deep dark downtempo sound, and this set will not fail to push boundaries of what we have already seen from her. If you are looking to check out some mind bending experimental sound, we definitely recommend getting up early for this one!

Kll Smth– If you’re wanting to get a late night DNB fix, KLL SMTH is bringing you a very special set on the Incendia stage. If you have gotten the chance to listen to any of the DNB stompers this artist has released you already know what’s about to go down.

The time has come where we get to reunite once again within the beautiful portal that leads to paradise , normal folks just like to it Okeechobee however. After taking a two year hiatus due to you know what and being saved thanks to the purchase of Insomniac, the OMF team has finally regrouped to show once again why Okeechobee is one of the Sunshine states leading camping festivals within the music industry. Unfortunately after such a long break, there is that possibility that one may get rusty in terms of camping preparation. Lucky for you, we have a short and sweet simple top five list that is bound to save you quite the head ache upon arrival.

Warm clothes & thick blankets: You may be thinking , ” Why do I need that if it’s called the sunshine state? “, when we say to just trust us on this one just do it. Don’t worry about the sunshine , there will be PLENTY of that without a doubt as well. If you’re a OMF veteran like us from the very beginning , then you absolutely already know how cold it gets night. Don’t double think it, bring that worm attire and you can just thank us later unless of course you like it when your bones shiver at night.

Ear plugs: You know those funny memes of the random wooks that may stumble into your campsite trying to still party, or loud neighbors playing music who have no sense of time that just seem to be made of lithium. Well it’s all fun and games until you can’t sleep at night after all the shenanigans if Patrick from camp pee pee poo poo won’t stop making horse noises if you know what I’m saying. Unless you’ve trained your mind in the art of noise cancellation , bring those ear plugs so you can sleep like a baby once rested in your tent.

Water: This one might seem like an absolute no brainer but is it really or were you just more focused on how much beer you can fit in your vehicle before you friends start questioning your sanity. Bring tons of it, you will run out eventually and your body will thank you for it. The last thing you need after a long hike back to your campsite  is to take a break and to realize no one brought enough water and now you’re all out. Also please balance out your alcohol intake with plenty of water, we don’t want no one getting hurt especially when the Florida sunshine rays are built different.

Flag: If you’ve been a victim of participating in the brutal maze game of just going around in circles and not finding your campsite when returning back at night , well good news because you’re not alone. All you want to do is to finally go back and get rest before doing it all over again the next day , a simple task some would say but have you tried doing so while under the influence? Make it easy for yourself and put up a flag at your campsite, heck even add lights to it if it makes it easier. Anything to improve the quality of your camping experience is well worth it and for easy spotting of course.

Good Vibes: No one likes a party pooper, especially not a Okeechobee music festival camping party pooper. Whatever problems , drama , inconveniences , or issues you may deal with in the outside world , that’s probably the best place to leave it , outside. Here at the beautiful camp grounds of OMF , we are here to unite as one and to celebrate life through the various forms of frequencies we will be hearing while in attendance. If you’re friend seems down, bring them up. Let’s spready the positivity and keep the good vibes flowing all weekend long !
