[FESTIVAL PLAYLIST] The Sights and Sounds' 2013 North Coast Music Festival Playlist

So it’s the end of August and in the States that unfortunately means that festival season is slowly coming to an end. However, if you live in the Midwest (or even if you don’t) there is always one more festival to look forward to before closing out the season. North Coast Music Festival, also known as summer’s last stand, is just a couple days away and one of the last chances to catch some of your favorite artists outdoors in Chicago’s beautiful Union Park.

This year’s lineup is not one to be missed, as North Coast always does a stellar job of booking a wide range of musical talent ranging from electronic to indie to hip-hop. With such an eclectic group of artists it’s sometimes hard to break free of your musical comfort zone to go see someone new, so we here at The Sights and Sounds have put together a playlist of the 17 must see acts performing this year. You’ve probably heard of some of the bigger headlining acts, with Passion Pit, Big Gigantic and Wu Tang Clan taking the top spots at the festival this year. However, there is plenty of insane talent performing at all times throughout the weekend, so hit play on our official playlist below and start discovering some new artists to see this year.

 

 

We’re big fans of all our Chicago performers as well, so make sure you take time out of your schedule to see some homegrown talent with Kings of Class, Xonic, Milk N’ Cookies, D1rty Noize, Animale, NORdjs, and DangerWayne.

Other acts you will not want to miss: Bondax, The Knocks, Seven Lions, Ghost Beach, Rebelution, and Purity Ring will all put on great shows.
