IE’S OWN AUDIO PUSH HEADLINES 3RD ANNUAL ALIVE & KICKIN MUSIC FESTIVAL ON SATURDAY, APRIL 7

WHAT:

Blue Chips, Over Everything & LFTD is proud to announce the third installment of the Alive & Kickin Music Festival. The event takes place at the National Orange Show Sports Event Center (Gate 10) in San Bernardino California on Saturday, April 7.

Alive & Kickin was started in 2016 by San Bernardino hip-hop artist Cam Archer as a way to showcase independent hip-hop talent in the Inland Empire and beyond. The festival also celebrates the IE’s rich musical legacy, and aims to foster and inspire the community’s creative scene for future generations of artists.

This will be the third consecutive year for the event. At a time when the IE has sadly witnessed beloved venues such as The Vibe and Clash City Station close its doors, the festival has found a new home at the National Orange Show to help keep the IE’s love for local and live music thriving. This time around there will be TWO STAGES.

WHO:

IE born and raised hip-hop duo Audio Push will headline the event. Midway through their own headlining tour, the group also just released their new album, “Cloud 909.” The group is thrilled to take the stage in the IE where it all began.

Kidd Dryden, best known for his chart-topping album “Forbidden Fruit,” has a new album on the way entitled “Growth.” This will be his first performance since 2017, and fans are eagerly awaiting his return.

Cam Archer will also perform alongside his band, The Midnight Society, putting a rock twist on Archer’s own hip-hop talent. Archer is still riding the wave of his late 2017 release “SPIRITGUNNER,” which features “Amapola,” named for one of the IE’s favorite restaurants. His performance promises a taste of what is to come in 2018.

Other confirmed performances include: DOPECAL, Jay Kasai, Kayo The God, Faja The Poet, Beezy, Sincere, RNB, Rawyal-T, Caleb Lombard, The Brown Mambas, Esco & Prod-OG. More acts are expected to be announced as the festival approaches.

Featured vendors include: Double Eyez Collective clothing line, and Serious Cartoons record store.
