With more than 300 bands from around the world – at 30 different venues on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights, a lineup that large can be a bit overwhelming to navigate, so we’ve done your homework for you and highlighted some of the more familiar names, under-the-radar gems and do-not-miss performers.
- York synth-rock band Kamikaze Kupcakes have one of the most unique shows and sounds coming out of Central PA right now. - Fly Magazine
(Prior to airing 'The Indestructible Girl')
Kamikaze Kupcakes (all K's in that name, by the way) is a unique group coming out of York, PA. Check them out online and get out to see them. - 105.7 The X (Radio Show)
Kamikaze Kupcakes followed suit, albeit with a far more saccharine brand of decadent rock power. Vocalist Kristina’s voice exudes a sickly sweet quality appropriate to the band’s candy-coated image, full of equal parts melody and punk rock grit on such songs as “Indestructible Girl” and “Make Me Rotten,” her fuchsia blazer shimmering in the stage lights. Once again with the headliners’ equipment encompassing much of the stage space, Kamikaze Kupcakes still put forth a considerably active stage show, with Addam, J.J., and Jared filling out the space rather effectively, exuding the band’s usual bravado despite the physical constraints. Credit must also be given to the band for the lush marriage of image and music, with artfully designed custom jewelry and even helpings of candy at the merch table for good measure. - Regen Magazine

Bio
Once upon a time there was a girl named Kristina Sweet who was put on a mission to make a humongous batch of cupcakes with a humongous bowl. It was said to be a doomed mission with highly toxic sugary ingredients.
Hypnotized by the ultra sweet toxins, she was knocked unconscious and
fell into the humongous bowl of cupcake batter. Alerted by her
disappearance, Captain Addam Robert Paul was sent in to save her in his
mini-transportable submarine.
Meanwhile, Kristina Sweet's
kitchen was filled with an alluring aroma that happened to draw in a boy
named J.J. as he was passing by her house. Immediately hypnotized, he
dove head-first into the humongous bowl of cupcake batter.
Captain Addam Robert Paul was searching and searching, but the cupcake
batter was so thick his submarine was malfunctioning. All communication
to his base was lost. Professor Fifield was alerted and sent in to find a
solution!
Inside the cupcake batter, Kristina Sweet, J.J. and
Addam Robert Paul were floating in a sweet ecstasy of bliss. Were they
dead? Were they alive? Did they even want to be saved?! But the
Professor was working at a maddened pace to try!
AHA! YES!
Professor Fifield has created, what he hoped was a solution to save
them! In full scuba garb, at the edge of the humungous cupcake batter
bowl, he happily jumped in with his antidote capsules. He swam deep
inside the sweetness to find them.
Fifield saw three figures
dancing a hypnotic dance. He forgot why he was even there, but realized
it must be to join in the fun! As the clock was ticking, his antidote
capsules all began to explode in the cupcake batter.
Snap! CracKle! POW!
Kristina Sweet, Addam Robert Paul, J.J. and Fifield shot up out of the
humongous bowl of cupcake batter, into the sky, into space and back to
earth in glittery, electrifying, technicolor form!
What happened?! What have they become!? KAMIKAZE KUPCAKES, bitch!
