This has been a generally huge year in music, and a lot of top artists have dropped projects, or have upcoming projects lined up to drop soon. Nine times out of ten you're probably going to want to go see them in concert to experience all the hits live in person. With so much music from so many artists and so many tours happening, things can seem to get a little heavy on the pockets. Well lately all of that has changed with the resurgence of music festivals. Usually utilized by upstart artists and independents as of late a lot of major artist have been taking a liking to making a festival run or two. Though festivals like Coachella, Made In America Festival, and Lollapalooza have garnered national attention in recent years by picking up major artist, there are still a lot of smaller festivals that still focus on the smaller artist. Though, they may not have that major deal and some may but still treat there careers as independent they still can rock out a show on any given night. One notable festival is held right here in the city of Chicago and has a long history of success. That particular festival is Pitchfork Music Festival. Held on July 17-19 in Union Park this years lineup includes the likes of Chicago's own Chance The Rapper, and Vic Mensa a host of other notable performers include A$AP Ferg, Freddie Gibbs & Madlib, ILOVEMAKKONEN, Future Islands, and Run The Jewels.
