If you live in Los Angeles it doesn't get much bigger than Hard Summer. And the roster for this year's gathering is as star-packed as ever. Mega EDM promoter Hard announced the line-up for the sixth annual edition of the two-day festival with a cheeky three-minute video starring a dog show's-worth of adorable canines, ducks and other wildlife dressed in an increasingly absurd array of costumes.
