About Our Featured Artists

Oolala - Main Stage Headliner

OOLALA is a band that travels on gravity and is, therefore, unbound in its cosmological studies of the universe through ROCKROLL. Free to experience all points in space, all forms of energy, all states of matter, and all times in time, fully and simultaneously, their vibrations are the stuffs from which everything is made and un-made. Led by spiritual advisor RUMI KITCHEN, the grouping spawns a GOLDEN EGG and gifts it to the audience at every performance.

Fronted by Rumi Kitchen, spiritual advisor to Johnny Showcase (AGT Season 16).

Dominique Thomas - main stage

Dom is a dedicated hand drummer & percussionist from Philadelphia who began traveling and studying percussion at the age of 14. He & his mom traveled to Senegal & Mali, West Africa to study drum and dance with the National Ballet of Mali. He then attended Berklee College of Music to further his studies. Since then he has toured and worked with some of the top artists to date. Artists such as John Legend, Jill Scott, Eminem, The Roots, and Alicia Keys to name a few. He also has performed on a number of TV shows such as Jay Leno, Dancing With The Stars, The Voice, The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, Good Morning America as well at the White House for the VH1 Love & Happiness special a "Farewell to the Obama's".

World Percussion Demonstration at Earth Song Fest

Dom’s mission, along with his company Rhythm Cussion, is to focus on fun, interactive ways of exploring rhythm through percussive instruments. He wants to share & spread his experiences, love and joy for the arts through the styles, techniques, and rhythms he's learned along the way. In this demonstration we will show and highlight the instruments and how they interact with each other along with seeing and hearing the "call and response" component that is prevalent in African culture. Taking you on a cultural journey by hearing rhythms from West Africa, Latin America, and beyond. 

Dylan Zangwill - main stage

Dylan Zangwill is not your typical teenager. In 2021, Dylan appeared on Season 16 of “America’s Got Talent.” and impressed the judges with his version of Queen’s, “Somebody To Love,” which moved him on to play one of his favorites, “House of the Rising Sun” on a Hammond B3 at the Dolby Theater in Hollywood.

Following his success on AGT, Dylan quickly established a larger following and began playing more events and venues. In 2022, Dylan traveled to Nashville where he worked with Grammy Award-Winning producer John Carter Cash at the legendary Cash Cabin, recording 4 of Dylan’s original songs.

Late in 2022, Dylan appeared on American Idol Season 21 where he amazed the judges with an original composition, “Bittersweet Melody” and received his Golden Ticket to Hollywood. Following Idol, he went back to the studio to record more originals, this time with producer Adam Weiner and the backing of Adam’s band, Low Cut Connie.

He’s performed at venues of all sizes throughout the Philadelphia metro area and has also taken the show on the road to Delaware, Maryland, Nashville, New Orleans, Los Angeles, Hollywood, Florida, and even London audiences. Dylan’s signature sound is unmistakable: powerful vocals, refined piano and guitar playing, and enthralling originals, delivered with a unique and engaging blend of bluesy rock and Southwestern flair (and let’s not forget that hair!).

Dear Season - Main Stage

Dear Season is an emo/indie rock band from West Chester, PA. The band formed in the early Spring of 2023 when Nate Gittelman (drums) and Sean Slattery (guitar/vocals) wanted to collaborate on some musical ideas they had. Soon after their first meeting, Sean and Nate brought in Mario Delano (vocals/bass) and Brian Foster (guitar), filling out the band's sound. Inspired by bands like The Wonder Years, Modern Baseball, and Invalids, Dear Season hopes to leave their mark on the Philly emo scene. Their first EP, which is self titled, is currently being produced and is set to be released in the Summer of 2024.

Quick Chills - Main Stage

Quick Chills is a high-energy, rock 'n' roll powerhouse trio fusing alternative, punk, and indie rock that channels the currents of decades past while propelling into the unexplored territories of tomorrow. Quick Chills currently has three singles out on all music platforms - "Preamble," "Big Dumb Grin," and "Essayons."

The Frog Gods - Main Stage

The Frog Gods are a band based in Southeastern, PA. They play a variety of genres falling primarily into the rock category, including, but not limited to: Alt Rock, Indie Rock, Classic Rock, and Prog Rock. The Frog Gods play not only covers but also originals and are preparing for upcoming single releases this year.

The Frog Gods have been a part of their local music scene since 2019, but are ready to make strides towards a much larger audience as their members age and musicianship and resume grow.

The Band is comprised of high school students with a passion and love for music. What set The Frog Gods apart from other young and hungry bands can be best seen in their performance. The band aims to put on a captivating show that audience members of all ages will remember and love.

Matty Rineer - Garden Suite 3:30pm

A hardworking, Philadelphia-based musician, Matthew Rineer has been writing, recording and performing his own tunes for over fifteen years. His milestones include a several year stint living in Nashville, TN where he recorded 2011’s Survive and 2012’s Sycamore with a stellar cast of working players and producers. Following a move to Philly, Rineer has released a string of EP’s and singles between 2018 and 2022. Highlight’s include 2020’s East LA, and 2022’s Devil Song, both produced by the amazing Kyle Swartzwelder. MR’s songs have been played on Lightning 100 in Nashville and WXPN in Philadelphia, and he has had the opportunity to open for Leigh Nash of Sixpence None the Richer, SingerSongwriter Kevin Gordon (whose song was recorded by Keith Richards and Levon Helm), Cy Curnin of the Fixx, and Philly’s own Ben Arnold of US Rails. Currently, Matthew is finishing up a new six song indie rock project - Lightning In My Lungs.

“This will be my first time straying from the folk/americana genre, and I am absolutely thrilled to share this music. I’ve boasted about this several times, but I am proud of the fact that there are no acoustic guitars on this record. And of course working with some of the best Philly area musicians has been the highlight of all of this”.

Stay tuned for a release date and upcoming live performances. News as well as video content and music can be found at matthewrineer.net
