Description
It’s official, folks: The lineup for the inaugural Palm Tree Music Festival — produced by Belly Up, alongside Kygo’s Palm Tree Crew and live-event production company C3 Presents — has been released, and there is a lot of great music to look forward to.
“We are two kids from Aspen that want to have fun and bring fun stuff to the community we love,” said Danny Goldberg, who co-runs Belly Up with his older brother, David Goldberg, and father, Michael Goldberg.
Headlining Friday, Feb 24, is 12-time Grammy Award winning, singer, songwriter, musician, and producer Jack White. White, credited for being one of the key artists in the garage-rock revival of the early 2000s, is considered one of the most innovative guitarists of all time.
He found commercial and critical success with his band, The White Stripes’ 2001 breakthrough album White Blood Cells, with the hit single and music video “Fell in Love with a Girl.” In 2005, White founded The Raconteurs with Brendon Benson and, in 2009, The Dead Weather with Alison Mosshart of The Kills. Since then, he has enjoyed a successful solo career, most recently releasing two new albums in 2022, Fear of the Dawn and Entering Heaven Alive, for which he is currently touring.
“The key for us was to find a way to have a diverse lineup that feels like it hadn’t been done before but where the artists complemented each other. Obviously, Kygo and Jack White are very different sonically, but they are two incredible artists,” said David Goldberg.
Saturday’s headliner, Norwegian Electronic Dance Music (EDM) DJ and producer Kyrre Gørvell-Dahll, a.k.a Kygo, is a long-time friend and collaborator of the Goldbergs.
Danny Goldberg explained: “With Kygo (and his team), they have a history with Aspen. They have played Belly Up. They have done X Games. They have always wanted to do something here. They have Palm Tree Music Festival in the Hamptons, as well as other locations. They could have said, ‘We want to go somewhere else,’ but, for them to say, ‘We want to do Aspen with you guys,’ it meant something to David and I, and we took it and ran with it.”
