Sights and Sounds From Shaky Knees 2024

Shaky Knees 2024 took place last weekend at Central Park here in Paste‘s home base in Atlanta. And, as always, the festival was nothing short of spectacular, as headliners Noah Kahan, Weezer, Queens of the Stone Age and Foo Fighters rocked the stage. Timeless acts like Sunny Day Real Estate, Microwave, Switchfoot, Waxahatchee and Interpol joined up-and-comers Blondshell, Been Stellar, Odie Leigh, Mali Velasquez and Pool Kids on the bill, too, making for one absolutely special, legendary weekend.

From Friday until the late hours of Sunday night, Shaky Knees also featured Paste favorites like Del Water Gap, Grace Cummings, Men I Trust, Bad Nerves, Holly Humberstone, Nova Twins and Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs.
