Colorado’s South Park Basin is preparing for another year of Badger Bass Camp, a three-day music and arts camping experience from August 8th to August 10th.
Badger Bass Camp is a community-driven, intimate grassroots festival celebrating Colorado’s beloved underground bass scene. This year, the festival welcomes a thrilling lineup of barrier-breaking artists, including kLL sMTH, MPort, Duffrey, Copycatt, Chez, Keota, Humandala, and many more cutting-edge acts.
What To Expect
Prepared to be blown away by the wide range of genres and massive lineup of underground talent showcasing some of the best bass artists in the state. This includes experimental producers and tastemakers such as ABSNT, AtRysk, Flower Bass, Hericane, J. Lang, Manfish, Shlop, Spenny, Underground Selekta, Unearthly, and many more.
Presenting visuals for the entirety of Badger Bass Camp is Vision Reactor, a breakthrough VJ and animator in the Austin, Texas, underground scene. Self-taught 3D animator, Goop Wizard, will be managing visuals at the Full Moon stage. Also joining us from Arizona is Aesthesia, an up-and-coming creator who is carving out their unforgettable artistry from scratch. Industry veteran Chris Taylor and his motifs are sure to carry through the festival experience, transporting viewers through metaphysical planes. Finally, Sekret Garden founding member, Adinah Price, is bringing her entrancing exhibitions and projections.
The deeper meanings of these events are often lost, which is why Badger Bass Camp aims to create an event centered on high-fidelity sound, wellness, art, and spirituality. In addition, the festival is partnering with Connection Collective and True to the Sound, each bringing their unique vision to guide us on this sacred journey.
“Badger Bass Camp is a privately-owned, small-capacity event curated by artists, for artists with a heavy focus on sound, health, and spiritual wellness. Presented by Sekret Garden, the festival heavily incorporates the unique community spirit of the venue.
Experience the best the underground bass scene has to offer at a camping festival under the stars in beautiful Hartsel, Colorado!” – Badger Bass Camp
Stages
In a picturesque mountain town surrounded by breathtaking landscapes, Badger Bass Camp will feature three unique stages, over thirty fire performers, three dome structures, and multiple shaded areas. The Health and Wellness Dome, curated by Panda $tyle, will feature yoga and workshops throughout the weekend. These will be hosted by healers and guides, including Aquarian Payge, Keith Andersen, Movement with Jenae, and many other well-intentioned leaders.

The Sound Shrine Stage will transport attendees to cryptic sonic realms, utilizing Koja Sound and a projection mapping-centric approach.
As attendees will be blessed with the presence of a full moon during the festival, Badger Bass Camp is partnering with Connection Collective. Known for curating full moon parties in the Rocky Mountains, Connection Collective is introducing the Full Moon Dome Stage, an otherworldly experience of immersive sound.
