Artist context and what’s new this year

Recent work cited for her includes film projects and soundtrack work tied to a feature project and an adaptation of Wuthering Heights. Lorde and Tate McRae are also listed as headliners at another North American festival taking place the same weekend, and Lorde is noted to be playing multiple North American festivals this summer.
This year’s programming emphasizes both established acts and newer breakout names, delivering a mix of pop, rock, electronic and hip-hop across the festival’s eight stages. With more than 100 artists confirmed, the announcement signals a broad, multi-genre focus for the Chicago weekend.
