Today OUR Music Festival [OMF], the first-ever “crypto-fueled festival,” has announced the lineup for their debut festival in the San Francisco Bay Area on Saturday, October 20th. The festival has also opened a 24 hour presale exclusively to crypto-currency users, enabling fans to get engaged with the technology and purchase tickets to the first of its kind event today using BTC, ETH, BCH and LTC.

OMF has assemble some of modern music’s most buzzed about stars for their debut edition including Platinum selling and multi-Grammy winner Zedd, hip hop kingpin Big Sean, acclaimed electronic dance music producer 3LAU, indie-pop duo Matt and Kim, and pop phenomenon Charlotte Lawrence.

OMF CEO 3LAU will be joining forces with groundbreaking blockchain entertainment studio SingularDTV and one of the largest independent festival promoters in the US Prime Social Group along with digital marketing firm CrowdWaves. On top of that, AM Only founder and Paradigm partner Paul Morris, as well as agency power players Lee Anderson, Hunter Williams, Sam Hunt, and Phil Quist will be joining the team as strategic advisors on the event and talent side of the festival

After exploring the potential synergies between blockchain technology and the festival business, the partners have identified solutions to mitigate ticket inflation, counterfeiting, scalping, lack of consumer control and dozens of other inefficiencies that plague the industry. The OMF team ultimately believes that festival creators must place more power in the hands of fans to spark a necessary evolution of the live music space. Future editions following this year’s launch will see OMF leveraging the power of Ethereum and smart contract technology even more. Fans could earn crypto-currency simply by participating in the festival ecosystem, thus providing value. As the tech behind OMF develops, fans may redeem OMF Tokens for tickets, VIP upgrades, exclusive access, merchandise, food, beverages, and more at future OMF festivals and partnered events.

In the long term, the OMF team is building technology that will enable token holders to influence festivals themselves, from lineup to location. Following the inaugural event, the OMF Token will be available publicly, and the team will announce its partnerships with artists & festivals around the world.

Justin Blau (aka 3LAU) remarks “OMF will continue to add features as we develop, with two ultimate goals:

1. Giving fans ownership in the festivals they attend

2. Enabling fans to curate festival experiences from picking the lineup to the location

Those goals may sit on a distant horizon, but we need to start somewhere. In year one, we’re enabling crypto payments for tickets and are giving all attendees their first ETH paper wallet in the form of token cards. We believe that this will help spark mainstream adoption of new, powerful technology and cannot wait for you to join us on this long journey that starts today!”

Prime Social Group Co-CEO + Founder Adam Lynn states “We’re thrilled to integrate blockchain technology into the festival business and take lead into revolutionizing the live event industry. While curating OMF’s lineup, I wanted to provide fans with a diverse lineup with artists that have embraced new technology and culture. Both Zedd and Big Sean have both impacted the music industry in meaningful ways, and we are ecstatic to launch OMF with them as the headliners.”

SingularDTV CEO Zach LeBeau adds “It takes vision and grit to bring something as special as OMF to fruition. With so many projects focused solely on their ICOs, being able to have a music festival this year itself is a huge step for all of us. OMF is here and now ― it will only get better in the future with increased features and functionality.”

Ultimately, festivals change forever with OMF. Be on the lookout for more information and news very soon via OMF’s official Facebook, Twitter,  Instagram and Telegram.
