Four hot summer days, 9 different stages, over 140 different bands, and the tough decision on who to see over your 4 days at Firefly. Besides the obvious headliners, which bands are worth fighting the crowds to see? Here's the Top 10 "little bands" to see at Firefly this year:

1. Cash Cash

For some of you, this band might sound familiar. Well, they've actually been around for years. They've toured with bands like Metro Station, All Time Low, and Cobra Starship. This band is far from a throwback fad - they've decided to rebrand their ENTIRE sound. Check out Matches on their latest album, Blood Sweat & 3 Years.


2. Judah and the Lion

From Nashville, Tennessee, this alternative bands latest hit, Take It all Back, reached this year's #1 spot for alternative songs. The band is also known for their fun live performances. They break dance and Twerk on stage to keep the audience entertained in between songs from their sets. Between their latest hit and fun stage presence, this band is a must see!


3. PHANTOGRAM

This band's angsty music is considered electro rock. This best friend duo has started hitting top charts this year with their latest album, Three. They've toured with bands like M83 and Muse. Check out their biggest hit, You Don't Get Me High Anymore.


4. DAYA

This singer has just recently become a huge hit in the pop world with her hit singles, Sit Still Look Pretty and Hide Away. DAYA 's presence will not go unnoticed this year at Firefly.



5. ILLENIUM

ILLENIUM is considered the next CHAINSMOKERS for EDM type music. This DJ has remixed some of today's most popular hits and in some cases turned them into better versions of the original. Don't believe me? Check out this DJ's remixes on his YouTube or Sound Cloud site. With some of the best light entertainment to go with their music, ILLENIUM is a must see for a night time show this year at Firefly.

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
