About Iron Blossom 2026

Iron Blossom is a two-day festival on Richmond's Midtown Green with a bill considerably sharper than its size suggests: LCD Soundsystem closing Saturday, Jack White closing Sunday, and Dijon and Geese directly beneath them. Twenty-two acts total, which means very little clash anxiety and a lot of room to actually watch things.

The rest of the bill leans local and regional in the best way — McKinley Dixon, Edgehill, Haffway, Night Idea and Dogwood Tales are all Virginia acts, sitting alongside Phantogram, Portugal. The Man, Kevin Morby, La Luz and Die Spitz. Only the two headline rows have published days so far; everything else is still to be slotted.

Expect alternative, rock, psych-pop and dance-punk across 22 acts.

Lineup last updated July 27, 2026

The headliners

  • LCD Soundsystem The dance-punk philosopher kings — 'All My Friends' remains the great festival closer, and James Murphy its most self-aware master of ceremonies.
  • Jack White The White Stripes' architect, still committed to analog friction — old amps, unrehearsed setlists, and a guitar tone like a blown speaker.

Up-and-comers to catch early

  • McKinley Dixon Richmond's own — literary, live-band rap steeped in Toni Morrison.
  • Die Spitz Austin four-piece swapping instruments mid-set and getting very good very fast.
  • Edgehill A Virginia booking playing close to home.
  • Haffway Local act filling out the undercard.
  • Skorts One of the newer names on the bill.
  • Dogwood Tales Virginia americana, well placed on an afternoon slot.

Other acts worth planning around

  • LCD Soundsystem Closing Saturday night.
  • Jack White Closing Sunday night.
  • Dijon Directly beneath LCD on Saturday — one of the most singular live acts going.
  • Geese Sunday's second billing, and a band improving at an alarming rate.
  • Phantogram Hits considerably harder live than on record.
  • La Luz Reverb-soaked surf guitar under close harmonies.
  • Kevin Morby Reliable, unhurried songwriting for a late-afternoon slot.

Songs that sound recorded live in a crowded room by accident — ragged, intimate, and completely singular, with a live band that pushes them even further loose.

alt-r&bindie-soul

Jack White

The White Stripes' architect, still committed to analog friction — old amps, unrehearsed setlists, and a guitar tone like a blown speaker.

Top billing · Sunday

Geese

Unhinged Brooklyn art-rock — yelping, swaggering, and critically adored, like the Stones reassembled by art students mid-fever.

art-rock

Main stage

Portugal. The Man

Alaskan psych-rockers who backed into a global pop hit and kept the weirdness in the live set anyway — 'Feel It Still' plus deep-catalog detours.

psych-popindie rock

Main stage

Phantogram

Upstate New York duo pairing Sarah Barthel's cool delivery with beats that hit considerably harder live — 'When I'm Small' still the entry point.

On the bill

Kevin Morby

Loose-limbed, Dylan-shaped American songwriting, delivered like he has all the time in the world — road-dog albums that keep quietly stacking up.

indie folksinger-songwriter

On the bill

Die Spitz

Austin's instrument-swapping all-women punk-metal wrecking crew — everyone plays everything, and it all lands at full force.

On the bill

JMSN

Self-made silk — Detroit R&B auteur with a devoted following, self-released and sounding more expensive than most majors.

alt-R&B

On the bill

La Luz

Reverb-soaked surf guitar under close vocal harmonies — noir beach music with a psychedelic edge and a séance's calm.

surf-rockpsych-pop

On the bill

McKinley Dixon

Live-band rap steeped in Toni Morrison — dense, literary writing over horns and strings, jazz-rap with a scholar's heart and a poet's ear.
