LAS RAGEOUS Music Festival
Announces Updated Performance Lineup Otherwise & New Years Day Join KOMP-FM & Smash Magazine Launch |
|
Sin City’s premier rock and metal festival, Las Rageous, has released an updated performance lineup with the addition of hometown heroes Otherwise, along with goth-rock royalty New Years Day. Coming to the Downtown Las Vegas Events Center for its highly anticipated second year on Friday, April 20 and Saturday, April 21, the Live Nation-created music festival will take over two square blocks, in the heart of iconic downtown Las Vegas.
Otherwise and New Years Day join an already exciting lineup of both rock and metal icons and impressive newcomers. Festivalgoers can expect to hear fan favorites and possibly new music from Sin City mainstay and Saturday night headliner Five Finger Death Punch (who recently released their greatest hits album, A Decade Of Destruction), and an eclectic set from A Perfect Circle that may include their brand new song, “Disillusioned.” Additionally, fans hope to hear new tracks from NWOBHM staple Judas Priest, legendary hard rock group Clutch, Pop Evil and Saxon, who all have albums set for release in the coming months. There will be memorable spectacles from In This Moment and Ghost; killer performances from Black Star Riders (featuring members of Thin Lizzy), masked rap rock kings Hollywood Undead, and DED, who just released a music video for their new single “Hate Me,” along with music from metalcore heavyweights Underoath and Beartooth, Los Angeles breakouts VYCES and Bad Wolves, up-and-coming blues-rockers Joyous Wolf, and Vegas’ own Adelitas Way. The updated lineup for Las Rageous is as follows: |
