CalJam is based on the short-lived mid-70s music festival of the same name. It featured legendary performances from rock icons Black Sabbath, Aerosmith, and Deep Purple among others. The new iteration of the event similarly features an all-rock lineup.
Last year's performers include Queens of the Stone Age, Liam Gallagher, Cage the Elephant, and more.
Foo Fighters first announced CalJam 2018 back in November after the success of the revived music festival.
