Milwaukee, WI – The East Side Business Improvement District (#20) “ESBID,” a partner in the City’s efforts to develop and support strong businesses and the community on the East Side of Milwaukee, announced the lineup of bands that will be playing at Summer Soulstice Music Festival on Saturday, June 15, 2024. The lineup currently includes 23 bands and 7 DJs that will be performing on 5 stages and in Black Cat Alley. New this year are stages on Murray Avenue and at Kind Oasis.

The ESBID partnered with local talent and booking curator, Jason Burczyk, to assemble this year’s musical showcase. Commenting on the lineup, Mr. Burczyk said, “In keeping with the tradition of Summer Soulstice, we’ve put together a lineup that represents the spirit of the current Milwaukee music and arts culture. Whether you’re strolling with the family or coming to dance your face off, groove with the tunes or sing along to some old favorites, there’s a little something in here for everybody and we’re real proud of it.”

ESBID Executive Director, David Smulyan, praised Mr. Burczyk’s efforts, adding, “Jason has done an amazing job of assembling a lineup of talented musicians. In addition to the great variety of music, festival goers will have a wider array of vendors to sample as we’ve increased our number of vendors to 70 compared to 55 last year.”

Summer Soulstice Music Festival is on Saturday, June 15, 2024 from noon to midnight. It is a FREE showcase of outstanding music along with a variety of local food and arts & crafts vendors, and activities such as an Adventure Rock Climbing Wall.
