THE DINAH: 30TH ANNIVERSARY LINE-UP ANNOUNCED
MACY GRAY, KATE CUNNING, MK xyz & YUNG BABY TATE
The Dinah, the largest all-girl music festival in the world, has announced the entertainment line-up for its 2021 festival taking place September 29 through October 3 in Palm Springs, CA.
After almost a year-and-a-half of practically no in-person concerts, festivals and live music, The Dinah is back on track for an exceptional 5-day event with an epic slate of Top Ten Billboard headliners, rising pop stars, and celebrities. Full COVID-19 vaccination or negative COVID-19 test results will be required to attend the event.
Grammy-award winner Macy Gray will headline the Dinah Holiday Party on Saturday, October 2 at the Palm Springs Convention Center.
Sharing the stage with Gray is another Grammy-award winner: Yung Baby Tate.
Taking the stage at the Black and White Ball on Friday, October 1, is actress, singer, songwriter, performer and dancer, MK xyz. Music’s “it” girl gained popularity after releasing her song “Pass it” featuring G-Eazy. She released her latest EP titled “Sweet Spot” via Epic Records this past spring and has just been casted on Netflix upcoming drama vampire series “First Kill.”
Making a splash at the Girl Spot Pool Party on Friday, October 1 is leading non-binary artist and actor Kat Cunning. With a traffic-stopping voice and powerful presence, Kat Cunning adds soulful grace to anthemic alternative pop. Cunning recently released the hit single “Boys” which Billboard called “a life-affirming new single that deserves your attention” and Alternative Press heralded as “the perfect track to start off Pride month.”
The Dinah discovered so many emerging talents that need to be heard and is now excited to present two bands to watch in 2021: Boi Band and Smeared Lipstick who will respectively headline the opening and closing parties at AsiaSF Palm Springs. Both bands are part of The Dinah’s “Emerging Artist Contest” created as a commitment to the community to offer womxn and non-binary talents coveted stage time and exposure.
A cultural phenomenon that has over these past 30 years reached epic proportions, The Dinah has indisputably become an inescapable venue for female recording artists to breakthrough, and features a phenomenal line-up of artists ever to perform at a LGBTQ+ women event:
From a small, one-night event at a Palm Springs Museum with 1,500 participants thirty years ago, to booking lavish locations at deluxe hotels with some 15,000-plus attendees (LGBTQ+ women, non-binary & trans attendees, and straight allies), and major corporate sponsors today, The Dinah has evolved into one of Palm Springs & the Coachella Valley’s largest tourism boosters, as well as an event the entertainment industry’s most elite go to.
The Dinah will be celebrating its 30th milestone anniversary at its usual stomping grounds: The Hilton Hotel, AsiaSF Palm Springs and the Palm Springs Convention Center.
Place, atmosphere, and people you want to comeback for! What makes The Dinah so contagiously irresistible? Hands down, the event draws its massive appeal in its diversity – the mix of cultures – and the freedom that is always present in the air.
