Argonaut & Wasp to headline Celebrate Mansfield Festival

Saturday, Sept. 24 on and around Betsy Paterson Square in Downtown Storrs

Argonaut & Wasp to perform at the 19th annual Celebrate Mansfield Festival in Storrs, Connecticut

September 1, 2022 – The Mansfield Downtown Partnership is pleased to announce the headliner for its 19th Annual Celebrate Mansfield Festival will be Argonaut & Wasp.

Argonaut & Wasp formed over a love for house/ dance music while living in Burlington, VT among a thriving jam scene, of which they never really fit in. Since moving to Brooklyn in 2015, they have been finding inspiration from the city itself and the different vibrant scenes within it. Their sound has developed into an amalgamation of the rhythm and energy from house music, cues from the jam/ funk scene, and their love for the “leave every- thing on the table” attitude of NYC.

Argonaut & Wasp released their debut album, Starlight 99, in 2021 and have been on the move ever since, touring nationally with a stop at the famed Troubadour in Los Angeles, an appearance at SWSW in Austin, and sold-out shows coast to coast. This summer, they performed as part of Two Roads Brewing’s Road Jam Music Fest in Stratford, CT and at the Levitt Pavilion for the Performing Arts in Westport, CT.

Of their debut album, the band says it was “written (for the most part) during lockdown which allowed us some time to self reflect and take a break from the grind of shows & touring. We named it Starlight 99 because it’s about looking up and getting beyond yourself, to not only see the bigger picture but to become a part of it. These songs are more important than ever as

we are going through paradigm shifts in our culture and environment – we all need the opportunity to get this larger perspective to guide us into our unprecedented future.”

Music from Starlight 99 has been featured in ads for Absolut Vodka and the watchOS 8 for Apple Watch as well as on the hit Netflix show Never Have I Ever. Spotify listeners have streamed their songs over 8.8 million times.

Argonaut & Wasp will perform from 6:30 PM to 8:00 PM on the stage of the Jeffrey P. Ossen Family Foundation Pavilion on Betsy Paterson Square.

Visitors are invited to bring a blanket or lawn chair. Refreshments will be available for purchase from the Festival food booths and at Downtown Storrs restaurants.
