Kraken Music Fest
To Take Over The Orlando Amphitheater
On Saturday, February 19, 2022

With Performances By
The Used, Less Than Jake, Story Of The Year,
The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, Evergreen Terrace,
We’re Wolves, and The Dev

Kraken Music Fest is returning to Orlando for its biggest and most exciting year to date. Making a splash at The Orlando Amphitheater in Orlando, FL on Saturday, February 19, 2022, this lineup for the third annual Kraken Fest features a mix of punk rock legends and Florida staples including The Used, Less Than Jake, Story Of The Year, The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, Evergreen Terrace, We’re Wolves, and The Dev. As Florida’s first independent rock festival, Kraken Fest has quickly become a main event, with last year’s festival seeing thousands of fans in attendance supporting headliner Taking Back Sunday.

“We are insanely excited for Kraken Fest 2022,” says festival founders Freddy Escobar and Marcelo Ferreira. “Orlando has welcomed us with open arms since our first show there, so we are thrilled to be back and continue to grow. We are pumped to have the opportunity to bring The Used back to Florida after the unforeseen cancellation of their Orlando show earlier this year. And of course, we always look for ways to stay true to our roots and ensure Florida bands are well represented and we’ve done just that with two legendary bands – Less Than Jake and Evergreen Terrace. This will be our biggest Kraken Fest yet and we cannot wait!”

Less Than Jake vocalist and guitarist Chris DeMakes says, “Hey Kraken Fest! We are so honored that you invited us to play your festival. Orlando is right in our backyard, and we know this show is gonna go off! Can’t wait to rock with our friends in The Used, Story Of The Year, and Red Jumpsuit Apparatus as well. See ya soon!”

Florida’s own We’re Wolves adds, “Words cannot begin to describe our excitement for playing this event. We grew up on all this music. It all heavily influenced our young minds, and it’s crazy to see our name on the same flyer with all these giants.

Tickets for Kraken Music Festival are on sale,  with General Admission tickets starting at $54.95. There will also be two VIP ticketing options with standard VIP starting at $85 and VIP Side Stage starting at $150.

VIP tickets will include General Admission entry, access to a private VIP section with seating next to the stage, a private bar, VIP bathrooms, and expedited entry. The VIP Side Stage tickets will include VIP entry, access to the side stage viewing area for both the headliner and main support act, access to a private VIP section with seating next to the stage, a private bar, VIP bathrooms, and expedited entry.

Kraken Fest is all ages and hours are from 2:00 pm to 11:00 pm.

Through Their “Scream Back” Program With Educational Partner On Our Sleeves,

“Scream Back” shares the name with the group’s initiative addressing mental health issues plaguing the nation’s youth. Established in November 2019, the Scream Back program aligns the band members—vocalist Grant DeCrane, 23; drummer Reno Houston, 20; and guitarist Hayden Kissler, 19—with the educational messaging of Nationwide Children’s Hospital‘s On Our Sleeves movement, as well as Columbus’ active rock radio station 99.7 The Blitz (WRKZ) and SJC Custom Drums.

Scream Back largely utilizes in-school appearances to deliver peer messaging and personal stories that challenge fellow young people to have an open dialogue about mental health. Most recently, that includes Pray For Sleep promoting On Our Sleeves resources for helping teens and kids through the COVID-19 crisis, as seen here: https://www.nationwidechildrens.org/giving/on-our-sleeves/find-help/tools-for-you/coronavirus

In addition to contributing all proceeds from their first headlining show to On Our Sleeves, Pray For Sleep also submitted their lyrics to the hospital’s mental health experts for their input prior to the release.

In April, INKCARCERATION Music and Tattoo Festival was awarded Mansfield, Ohio’s prestigious Tourism Award of Excellence, and has been recognized by the United States House of Representatives, Ohio Senate, State of Ohio Representatives and Congressional Proclamation.

“The job the crew at INKCARCERATION did coming out of the gate demanded to be recognized,”  says Destination Mansfield President Lee Tasseff. “Our organization has worked with national events over the years, but nothing compared to the level of professionalism demonstrated in producing a head-turning concert event of the highest order on the iconic grounds of the Ohio State Reformatory…it was and is a perfect match. The community can’t wait to witness this year’s festival!”

Susan Fisher, Co-Producer, INKCARCERATION Music and Tattoo Festival, says, “We’re so honored to receive the Tourism Award of Excellence and be recognized by our Ohio State Representatives. We are grateful to our partners at Destination Mansfield who, along with Mansfield City officials, our local hotel partners and hundreds of Richland County volunteers, are gearing up to help us welcome our festival guests to a bigger and better INKCARCERATION 2019, from all around the world — as far as New Zealand.”
