With phase two, Lightning in a Bottle has now shared the list of artists that will be performing at The Stacks, The Junkyard, and The Grand Artique. Each of these stages feature their own unique setup, vision, and style of programming, giving attendees even more options to choose from as they weave their way throughout the festival grounds and create their individual journey.
Starting things off for phase two is The Stacks, which will return to LIB once again this year with a focus on bass music sets from a variety of rising stars and veterans alike. Highlights on the lineup include Joe Kay of Soulection, An-Ten-Nae, The Gaslamp Killer, Beat Kitty, Smoakland, Mimosa, Morillo, GREAZUS, Pressha, SPEKt1, HoneyBee, and much more.

The stage will also play host to the Junk in the Trunk art car, which has been present at Burning Man in the past and will act as a stage backdrop while also being mobile around the festival at times.
Closing things out for the phase two lineup is The Grand Artique, which transports festival-goers to the legendary home of Frontierville with its wild west aesthetic, classic saloon, and general store. This year, guests can look forward to a Psychedelic Hoedown from festival favorite Dirtwire, performances from live acts including The Brothers Comatose, Tommy Guerrero, Hermanos Gutiérrez, Gone Gone Beyond, Moontricks, and a variety of activities like Renegade Opera, Sunday Revival, a Grand Artique Talent Show, “The Grand Auction,” and Global Brunch with Danni G, Spekt1, Andreasone, and Beatalks.
