Indie rocker Goth Babe brought the crowd at the Boston Calling Green Stage in on the action during his Sunday set with features such as crowd surfing on inflatable rafts and a dance-off competition for a coveted prize.
The singer, whose real name is Griff Washburn, delighted fans with chill beats such as “Canary Islands,” “Weekend Friend” and “Casita” across his 45-minute allotted afternoon spot.
On two occasions, Washburn handed off pool floats to volunteers so that they could be carried through the crowd by their fellow spectators.
Some of the rafts eventually toppled, but the riders — assisted by members of the crowd — were lifted back into position.
Spectators also bounced around beach balls of varying sizes through the air as Goth Babe dove through his discography.
At one point, Washburn divided the crowd into left and right sections and asked concertgoers to out-dance one another, with one lucky fan winning the prize of an inflatable boat. The left side won the battle.
Goth Babe’s set was followed by singer Remi Wolf and her band on the Green Stage, and was preceded by alternative rockers Spin Doctors here.
