Fall Out Boy, Green Day, and Weezer previously topped the festival lineup of Minnesota Yacht Club, a summer festival in St. Paul, Minnesota. Green Day also joined dozens of artists who performed at the FireAid concert, a benefit show for those impacted by the California wildfires, performing “Last Night on Earth” with Billie Eilish, “Still Breathing” and “When I Come Around.”
Last month, Kahan performed at the MusiCares 2025 Persons of the year Benefit Gala, in honor of the Grateful Dead. Vampire Weekend, who will perform on the second day with Kahan at the Maryland fest, also showed up at the MusiCares event.
Blink-182 headed the Friday festivities at the 2024 Oceans Calling Festival, with The Killers and Dave Matthews Band headlining the Saturday and Sunday lineups, respectively. In the festival’s inaugural year, where Jack Johnson, John Mayer, and the Lumineers headlined, 50,000 people attended the beachfront festival each day.
