Marking the festival’s return to Eleanor Tinsley Park for its eighth year as Houston’s annual two-day music fest, the lineup for Free Press Summer Festival 2024 includes more incredible headliners than you can wrap your head around — from international progressive house sensation deadmau5 and indie rock superstars Modest Mouse and The National, to folk rockers Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros and soulful Texan Leon Bridges.

Trying to sum up the star-studded lineup is virtually impossible, so we’ll just tell you who to expect: indie rock darling Mac DeMarco, dubstep/house duo Zeds Dead, California rockers Young the Giant, Grammy nominated electronic artist Jamie xx, Def Jam rapper Logic, electro house duo The Chainsmokers, gypsy punk rockers Gogol Bordello, experimental hip hop group Big Grams (composed of Outkast’s Big Boi and electronic rock duo Phantogram), alternative rock legends Violent Femmes, Philly rap favorite Mac Miller, Swedish punk greats Refused, hip hop sensation A$AP Ferg, indie pop duo Matt and Kim, genre-breakers Big Gigantic, psych rockers The Black Angels, alt rock group X Ambassadors, up-and-coming rapper Tory Lanez, progressive house star 3LAU, punk rock band Against Me!, alt-folk rockers Frank Turner & The Sleeping Souls, bluegrass stars Trampled by Turtles, garage rockers Thee Oh Sees, self-proclaimed “hippie with soul” Allen Stone, Austin rock four-piece White Denim, psychobilly group Tiger Army, indie pop artist BØRNS and Swedish rapper Yung Lean and the Sad Boys — and we’re not even close to being done dishing out this year’s lineup.
