I am so ready for Lollapalooza! August 2nd cannot come soon enough, but luckily it is now only eleven more days away. Here is my feature on a lot of the smaller bands I am looking forward to to seeing in two weeks. Note that I did not include any headliners because most people already know their songs and already have their evenings planned out. But for those concertgoers who don't know who to see in the early afternoon and evening take a look at songs on this playlist.
Although they are all alt-rock bands this playlist is pretty diverse. You have Deap Vally's raw sound from the LA-duo Lindsey Troy and Julie Edwards to Wavves punk vibes and The Mowgli's sweet and mellow sound, all of which are perfect for listening to live.
I also featured a song from SKATERS and The Orwells because I will be attending their Official Aftershow at Schuba's in Chicago on Saturday night. If you are going to Lollapalooza I highly recommend seeing at least one aftershow because they aren't too expensive and it is great to see a band you love in a typical club setting, as well as on an outdoor stage. They also tend to play slightly different sets so you might get to hear their popular songs twice and a sampling of their older tracks.
Happy listening and get ready for Lollapalooza. If you are not lucky enough to go this year definitely look online for live streams of most of the concerts. They tend to have great quality (sound and picture) so if you can't be there you can still discover some new bands.
