If there were ever an island to get stranded on, Treasure Island [Music Festival] taking place on October 19th and 20th would be the perfect one.   As we count down the days, the San Francisco Bay area is holding on to an Indian summer while eagerly awaiting the festival’s intoxicating line-up.

Starting off the killer line-up, Giraffage plays on the Bridge Stage followed by Holy Ghost!, Major Lazer, Little Dragon, and Saturday’s headliner, Atoms for Peace.  So you wont miss anything, the festival is happy to offer alternating time slots!  The Tunnel Stage is also hosting a slough of amazing artists such as Robert DeLong, Poolside, Tricky, Phantogram and more.

Sunday will start at the Bridge Stage with Deep Sea Diver and close with allstar acts STRFKR, James Blake, and Animal Collective.  On the Tunnel Stage we have Cayucas, Real Estate and Sleigh Bells, who are sure to keep your day rocking until the one and only, Beck, takes the Bridge Stage to close out the evening back on the island.

There will also be a “Silent Frisco” happening the whole weekend long featuring sets from Shouts!, DJ Dials, Motion Potion, Steffi Graff, Mancub and many more!
