Miami Music Week is right around the corner, and one of its biggest parties has announced its return in a big way. Some of the biggest names in electronic music — Claude VonStroke, Tiga, Chris Liebing, and others — will perform at Damian Lazarus’ Get Lost Miami, which annually returns…
In a city filled with the constant drone of drum ‘n’ bass, Miami needs artists like Bloodshot Bill and his slicked-back hair to remind us what rock ‘n’ roll is all about. The Canadian one-man band has been releasing albums, EPs, and splits nonstop while constantly touring North America (though a weird issue in 2006 at the U.S.-Canada border got him banned from the States for five years).
These are the five best concerts in Miami this weekend.
Michelle Zauner, the frontwoman of the indie pop-rock group Japanese Breakfast, does it all. The ethereal, dreamy music for which the band is known shows only a fraction of Zauner’s talents, and she shows no signs of slowing down.
Save room for these awesome artists.
Tame Impala, the project led by Aussie musician Kevin Parker, hasn’t released an album since 2015’s “Currents,” yet the band remains a favorite, especially among music festival-goers.

If you’ve attended III Points since year one, you know how integral LCD Soundsystem’s James Murphy has been to the festival’s success. He DJ’ed the first year when the festival’s fate was still very uncertain. Of course, there was also the time Murphy was supposed to perform as LCD Soundsystem in 2016 but was forced to cancel the band’s appearance after a near-scare from Hurricane Matthew.
“There’s enough festivals in the world showcasing bands already well known and successful. We wanted to create a space where people who really love music can come hear new sounds and take those sounds home with them to expand their listening horizons,” Snarky Puppy bassist Michael League says of his original intentions for GroundUp Music Festival. “I wanted this to be a festival that only booked artists that aren’t just wonderful, but wonderful live.”
