Non-profit music festival, M3F Fest, is touching down in Phoenix, Arizona the first weekend of March! 100% of the festival’s funds go directly to charity and $5.2 million has been donated since its debut 20 years ago. This year’s lineup has fans of all different types of genres excited for what the festival has to offer. I am beyond ecstatic to announce KCR has been formally invited to cover the festival grounds next month. I’m here to share some of the top artists we are excited for!

Dominic Fike

Anyone who personally knows me knows I never shut up about how long I’ve been listening to Dominic Fike. If you haven’t witnessed his raspy vocals and alert stage presence live yet, now is your chance to. His discography is so versatile, so I’m positive you’ll find more than one song of his that will resonate with you. 

It’s Murph

It’s Murph decided to take an EDM course during his time at University of Southern California. He posted his first project “Food For The Soul” on streaming platforms, which was originally made for his class, and the internet went crazy over it. Fast forward a year later, he travels around the nation playing his original music for the ears of other electronic dance music lovers. 

Hippo Campus

Hippo Campus are one of those bands that has a sound everyone can’t deny enjoying. Their feel-good indie sound and electrifying stage presence mixed with the warmth of the Arizona sun will bring smiles all around M3F Fest.

SG Lewis

Chainsmokers, Zedd, and SG Lewis were the artists that introduced me into EDM music. While Chainsmokers and Zedd got me hooked through FM radio during my childhood, SG Lewis’ collaborations with indie artists I love, such as Clairo and Ruel, made me view EDM totally different from what I was used to. I’m looking forward to his visuals and his overall performance! 


Bennett Coast

I started listening to Bennett Coast in 2020, so I was super stoked to see his name on this insane lineup! Gaining traction these past months on TikTok for his creative direction, it’s fair to say he is very talented when it comes to his vision for his music.  

Arlo Parks

I actually found out about Arlo Parks through Dominic Fike. Being a fan of Dominic Fike for so long, I was familiar with his guitarist, Baird. Through following Baird, I saw that Baird worked on Arlo Parks’ album. I was immediately hooked onto her sound after minutes, and I’m positive you’ll feel the exact same way. 

Valley

Valley is the epitome of feel-good indie music. They’re so slept on, and I’m here setting alarm clocks to wake up everyone! I’ve been listening to them since my freshman year of high school, and now I’m a sophomore in college. I haven’t seen them live yet after all these years, so I’m eager for the first weekend of March to come around! 

Bakar

Bakar’s unique, indie-alternative sound is something you cannot miss if you’re attending M3F Fest. Traveling from London for the festival, the 30-year-old music sensation will perform an unforgettable set. 

Dayglow

I’ve seen Dayglow live a handful of times, and his overall vibes are perfect for a festival! His upbeat music will have the crowds dancing around the grounds all night!
