Sacramento's Aftershock Festival is aiming to go even bigger than its last iteration this year, as the event has added another musical set to complete the fourth day.
The event, scheduled to be held from October 6 to October 9, will feature 90 musical acts, including headliners Slipknot, KISS, My Chemical Romance, and Foo Fighters.
The bands are also hyped up to be a part of the sixth edition of the event, which has sold out in all of its previous iterations.
Papa Roach frontman Jacoby Shaddix said, "I am over the moon stoked to be one of the headliners of Aftershock this year. Honestly, this is like a dream come true. We have worked our whole career for moments like this, and cannot wait to be back in Sacramento, where it all began, for the hometown throwdown!!!! NorCal better be f**king ready, 'cause it's about to go down at Aftershock 2022!!!!!"
Evanescence founder and lead vocalist Amy Lee said, "We are so stoked to play at Aftershock in Sacramento this fall! MCR, FOO FIGHTERS, KISS, SLIPKNOT, there's so much to look forward to! We absolutely cannot wait for this epic festival."
