iHeartMedia announced today the lineup for the eighth annual “iHeartRadio ALTer EGO” on January 11, 2025 with Cage The Elephant, Fontaines D.C., Glass Animals, Incubus, St. Vincent, The Head And The Heart, The Lumineers, The Offspring, and Damiano David. The event returns to the Kia Forum in Los Angeles, hosted by Woody of iHeartRadio KYSR (ALT 98.7)/LA’s nationally syndicated “The Woody Show” and will broadcast live for fans on iHeartRadio Alternative and Rock stations across the country and on iHeartRadio.com.

“For the 8th year in a row, every other option was exhausted, and with the announcement looming, a decision had to be made,” said Woody.” That’s when we were handed the keys and warned that we had better not screw this up. It’s an honor — one we fully intend to live up to. Here’s hoping January 11 arrives before iHeart realizes their mistake!”

All this week, iHeartRadio is giving Alternative Rock fans the opportunity to win trips to Los Angeles to attend the “iHeartRadio ALTer EGO Presented by Capital One” before the tickets go on sale. The promotion will run across more than 80 Alternative, Rock and Classic Rock 90s iHeartRadio stations nationwide.

Lisa Worden, PD for ALT 98.7 and SVP/Rock & Alternative for iHeartMedia, said, “We are thrilled to present this incredible lineup of artists representing all genres of Alternative and Rock returning to one of the most iconic Rock venues Los Angeles has to offer, the Kia Forum. It’s our 8th year doing this and each year it keeps getting better.”
