STERLING HEIGHTS, Mich. (April 25, 2014)– Freedom Hill Amphitheatre, one of the Detroit, Michigan/Windsor, Ontario region’s premier outdoor entertainment venues, is excited to announce the return of Chill On The Hill after its inaugural success in 2013.
Chill On The Hill, presented by 89X, is a multi-day festival featuring the biggest bands in the Rock and Alternative Music scenes, including Rise Against, The Offspring, A Day To Remember, Bad Religion and more. The complete lineup is as follows:
Saturday, September 6 – The Offspring, A Day To Remember, Bad Religion, Grouplove, Portugal. The Man, Sleeper Agent, Smashing Satellites
Sunday, September 7 – Rise Against, Awolnation, Chevelle, Taking Back Sunday, USS, Brick + Mortar, The Orwells
This year, The Offspring is celebrating the 20th anniversary of their multi-platinum Smash album–the biggest selling indie release of all time, featuring “Come Out and Play (Keep ‘Em Separated),” “Self Esteem” and “Gotta Get Away”–and will play the entire Smash album live at Chill On The Hill. They’ll also play songs from their other albums later in the set.
A Day To Remember’s 2013 headlining performance at Chill On The Hill marked the biggest headlining show of their career, creating a lot of excitement around their return.
“We’re excited to be expanding Chill On The Hill into a multi-stage festival this year, thanks in part to our strong continuing partnership with 89X,” says festival producer Danny Wimmer of Danny Wimmer Presents. “After they tore up the Chill On The Hill stage last year, there was never any doubt about bringing back A Day To Remember–and we’re especially proud to be bringing the 20th anniversary celebration of The Offspring‘s landmark Smash to the Detroit/Windsor area.”
Jay Hudson, Program Director for 89X CIMX in Detroit/Windsor says, “We’re excited to welcome back Chill On The Hill for second straight year. I feel that this year’s lineup has a little something for everyone. It defines what 89X has always been about when it comes to music–we like to mix things up and have fun.”
