On the 12th - 13th of July, South Ocean Festival is on its sophomore year with notable artist performing such as The Cardigans (SE), Phoenix (FR), Viagra Boys (SE) and more! Check out the official playlist below 👇

Simon shares the story of his early interest in playing different instruments that later lead him to an award winning musical career in Nashville, TN. After becoming somewhat disillusioned by the music industry he wanted to pursue something else that would include his hometown Malmö. Slowly but surely the idea of a music festival developed and last year Simon organized the brand new festival by the Sibbarp oceanfront with artists like Florence & The Machine (UK), Röyksopp (NO) & The Libertines (UK), attracting 16.000 visitors.
