Get ready to start planning out your summer, because the Pitchfork Music Festival’s 2019 lineup has arrived. The Chicago edition of the festival will feature headline performances from HAIM, The Isley Brothers (*a 60th anniversary celebration), and Robyn.
While it’s a bit of a Pop affair on the top of the bill, there’s plenty of noteworthy variety on the rest of lineup with favorites in Earl Sweatshirt, Pusha T, Kurt Vile, Snail Mail, JPEGMAFIA, Clairo, Freddie Gibbs, Parquet Courts, Soccer Mommy, and Mavis Staples. This is a hell of mix of up-and-coming freshness and dope icons.
As customary, the Chi is also well represented thanks to names like Whitney, Jeremih, Grapetooth, Valee, Ric Wilson, Dreezy, and Tasha.
