Skrillex and Pretty Lights launch With Your Friends Festival

Skrillex

Electronic music maestros Skrillex and Pretty Lights are teaming to curate an eclectic festival in Nashville over the weekend leading up to Halloween. 

The With Your Friends Festival will be co-headlined by the two top acts, and will feature an undercard that includes rapper Nas (performing with a nine-piece band), Santigold, 12th Planet, Dillon Francis, Michal Menert, and TOKiMONSTA.

The two day bacchanalia will take place October 26 and 27 on the waterfront of downtown Nashville. There will also be some after party events, including one scheduled to take place on a river boat.

More info can be found here.
