Here at The SoCal Sound, we love Ohana Fest. An Eddie Vedder-curated festival on the beach? What’s NOT to love? Every year when the lineup is announced, everyone in Southern California who knows and loves music buzzes about it. This year was no exception. With acts like The Foo Fighters, The Killers, The Chicks, Haim, and the man himself, Eddie Vedder, it is THE SoCal festival to attend. We sent our Contributing Photographer Abigail Albo down to Doheny State Beach to take some pictures and talk to a few of the artists playing this year’s Ohana Fest.
Day One of the festival featured: The Killers, Haim, Father John Misty, Japanese Breakfast, Danielle Ponder, and a brother duo called Hermanos Gutiérrez. Check out all the great shots Abigail got below! - Hillary Gordon
