University Union has announced that this year’s Juice Jam Music Festival will take place on Sept. 10 at Skytop Field. The lineup will feature Diplo, Ugly God, MØ, Smallpools and Jeremy Zucker across the festival’s two stages. Doors for this event will be open at 12:15 p.m.

Thomas Wesley Pentz, better known as Diplo, is one of the most dynamic forces in music today. He’s received multiple Grammy nominations, including Producer of the Year, and was named the #1 most streamed artist on Soundcloud for 2013. Pentz has 235+ show dates under his belt in 2015 alone.

Known for his viral single “Water,” Ugly God is a rapper and producer from Houston. The single made Billboard’s Spotify Velocity and Spotify Viral 50 charts. Ugly God issued his full-length Asylum debut, “The Booty Tape,” in 2017. The mixtape climbed into the Top 30 of the Billboard 200.

Hailing from Funen, Denmark, MØ is Karen Marie Ørsted. Her latest single “Nights with You” is MØ’s first solo release of 2017. Her unique songwriting and vocal style have earned her status as one of the pop world’s fastest rising stars and the respect of its most influential producers and songwriters.

Consisting of Sean Scanlon on vocals, Mike Kamerman on guitar, Joe Intile on bass and Beau Kuther on drums, Smallpools splashed into the music world in mid-2013 with its debut single “Dreaming,” which skyrocketed to No. 1 on trendsetter the Hype Machine‘s popular music chart.

Twenty-one-year-old singer, songwriter and producer Jeremy Zucker had been quietly carving out his distinct sound from a bedroom in suburban New Jersey. He released a stream of singles that would eventually be packaged together as an EP titled “Breathe” with the project’s breakout single “Bout It.”
