And just like that, there are only 15 performances left before SunFest 2017 is over. Like any other day, there are a lot of acts to choose from — some that may be familiar and others complete strangers. That happened to me yesterday with the Magic City...
With virtually every song in its set list being about the sun, the heat or being outdoors, I'm convinced alternative/reggae-fusion group Dirty Heads wrote its tunes with SunFest in mind. That's why when the California-based group took the stage yesterday for a massively long set list of hits...
Friends, Saturday might go down as one of the most beautiful days in SunFest history. Even if I said that before, this time I really, really mean it. There was not a cloud to spot in the sky. The breeze was light, and temperatures stayed...
Despite filling the Tire Kingdom stage to the brim, having multiple platinum records and performing at two presidential inaugurations, 3 Doors Down remains humble as can be — and that was evident last night.

It may be day four of SunFest as a whole, but it's only day two at the JetBlue stage. Headlining later tonight is singer Tori Kelly. Her music crosses genres including R&B, pop, acoustic, and rock. So it's only fitting to get a little taste of everything...
Reggae music remains a pillar of SunFest. Each year we are treated to acts like The Wailers, Ziggy and Damian Marley, SOJA, Iration, 311, Slightly Stoopid, and Morning Fatty. The island notes and flavors are simply perfect for our seaside stages, and this year is...
