About All Things Go DMV 2026
All Things Go's flagship weekend is indie-pop's biggest tent, pitched at Merriweather Post Pavilion just outside DC, three September days where the internet's favorite songwriters headline and the group chat plans outfits weeks ahead. The 2026 bill is the festival's thesis in full: Mitski, The Hayley Williams Show, and Brandi Carlile as anchors; Ethel Cain, MUNA, and Lola Young carrying the torch; and an undercard dense with the sharpest young pens in folk-pop and synth-pop. It's queer-forward, songwriter-obsessed, and unusually kind for a festival, with a comedy detour (Robby Hoffman) tucked in for good measure.
Expect pop, indie pop, folk-pop and singer-songwriter across 49 acts.

Genre-fluid Boone collective — rapid-fire folk-rock with communal fervor, harmonies stacked high and crowds louder still.
Remi Wolf
Funk-soaked alt-pop from Palo Alto, sung in a big elastic voice that never picks one color when six will do. 'Juno' and 'Big Ideas' are the albums.
West Virginia's gilded-age songbird — old-time, calypso, and honky-tonk swirled into something timeless, delivered in vintage lace and total command.

LA harmony-pop trio — sunlit, sisterly, huge-voiced, three-part choruses that sound genetically engineered, country-pop warmth with conservatory chops.
Bay Area hyperpop auteur — glitchy, hooky, scene-defining, 'Wallsocket' worldbuilding included, internet-native songwriting at its sharpest.
Yes, Dave's daughter — and a genuinely arresting voice striking her own path, closer to torch song than stadium rock.
