All set for day 2 of Bumbershoot? Saturday, September 2nd has more cool electronic music to experience. The festival turned 46 this year, and it wants to dance with you. Or just dance.
KeyArena
Big Wild @ 8:25
Electronic
Big Wild
Big Wild released his debut EP, Invincible, this year. Rejoice. Really, rejoice. The DJ (Jackson Stell) has done some great remixes of Odesza and Hundred Waters, as well.

DJ
Dillon Francis
Following Big Wild, Dillon Francis headlines your Saturday night. I’ve waited for something new from him for *one* long year. And he has delivered with
G-Eazy on “Say Less.”

Monster Energy Stage @ Fisher Green
Tacocat @ 6:00
Punk Pop
Tacocat
Beloved Seattle quartet, Tacocat, pretty much just off their Coachella debut this year, play the Fisher Green Stage. I also enjoy their Faceboook page, which provides pictorial evidence that this band loves animals – just like I do!

Mural Ampitheatre
SOFI TUKKER @ 8:25 (headliner)
Dance
They nearly won a Grammy Award for Best Dance Recording with “Drinkee.” The duo, Sophie Hawley-Weld and Tucker Halpern, got major attention with the song, which is sung in Portuguese. They’re repped by some of the same folks who worked with Scissor Sisters, so I have high hopes for this group.
