Legends and innovators in the Southern California punk scene.

Friday will have a special light thanks to the incorporation of Mumford & Sons. The legendary British band, or one of the greatest exponents and representatives of folk-rock worldwide, come to Mad Cool Festival to offer us and make us participate in a unique and unforgettable live show, where their most choreable anthems, along with their unmistakable melodies and riffs, will be the protagonists.

From Glasgow, we will have Primal Scream, a rock band led by Bobby Gillespie. An essential name to understand the 90s scene that will undoubtedly make us sing along on Saturday 8th with great songs such as “Movin’ on Up”, “Loaded” and “Country Girl”.

International pop plus Genz and Ava Max are synonymous. American singer and songwriter who has carved out a niche for herself in mainstream pop. With more than 11 billion plays worldwide, and a variety of interesting collaborations, she has proven that the title of pop superstar is hers.

The national spot will come from Morgan. A group that perfectly blends the most up-tempo folk-rock with funk, gospel and the most classic soul. Exquisite songs painted with her incomparable voice, performed live by a band polished to the millimetre, transmitting class, taste and beauty. We will also be able to enjoy other important names on the national scene such as Dora, Walls, Sila Lua, Ghouljaboy, PETTI and Ralphie Choo.
