MATT PLESS A long standing favorite in the DIY and folk punk scenes, Baltimore singer-songwriter Matt Pless has been making an impression on music fans since he was first noticed singing amid the protesters at Occupy Wall Street. More folk than punk, Pless is an outsider among outsiders– his wild hair and lyrical finesse bring to mind Dylan at his peak. His live performances are renowned for their fast paced energy that captivates audiences with each strum of his guitar and every impassioned lyric. A consummate performer with a high-energy stage presence, Matt Pless travels the road continuously entertaining and astounding his audiences. With guitar and harmonica as his tools of choice and words as his main characters, he has shared the stage with the likes of Maroon 5, Rilo Kiley, Alkaline Trio, Arlo Guthrie, Bad Brains, Fallout Boy, All Time Low and others. PLUS GUESTS Dryadic, Crow and Kayleigh Beez

Entry requirements: 14+, any under 18s accompanied by 21+ adult 1:1 ratio
