Did you make it out to the 1.21 Gigawatts Festival this weekend? I was able to attend the fest on Friday and catch some exciting acts, confetti, sweaty rooms, projections and more! This was the second year that music mag Gigawatts has put on a festival, and this time it was four days long, taking place at three venues, including a secret house show. The glossy, fun feel of Radio Bushwick, which was the main hub of the fest contrasted with new music venue Hot 97.4 just up the street, which was a more of a raw setting in an unfinished loft with empty rooms and urinals in the bathroom.  Totally badass.

This year’s line-up for all four nights was so stellar, that any day of the festival featured mind-blowing bands of variety of genres. Granted, it was nearly impossible to catch every band, but it was possible to get snippets of one band and then run up the street to check out a bit of the next one. But for those who enjoy staying in one place or leisurely making their way from one venue to another, wherever you went, there was something awesome happening on stage.

What an awesome way to spend a weekend, and you can relive through our Gigawatts playlist here, and the bands we caught below!
