Liily

The first night of FIGFEST at Figat7th got started with Liily. They may be all but in their late teens, but these guys kicked some serious ass. I mean, who else get a circle pit started in day light?

Cherry Glazerr

Headlining the first night of FIGFEST at Figat7th was Cherry Glazerr. Front-woman Clem went straight into. With two big cherries on stage, Cherry Glazerr pleased fans with their melodic, yet at times thrashing tunes. And yes, there was plenty of crowd-surfing.
