To cap off our list of artists to catch this year, an insane b2b2b felt like a fitting end.

With that in mind, this b2b is sure to be epic. Barely Alive’s signature blockhead and wobbly sound will be complemented by Virtual Riot’s hard-hitting basslines and Modestep will blend it all together for what is probably going to be one of the heaviest sets of the weekend.
