Pitchfork Music Festival is just around the corner and eMusic has given us a pair of tickets to give to one of our readers.
Since 2005, Pitchfork Media has been bringing some of the nation’s best indie, alternative rock, hip-hop, and rap to Chicago for a killer summer festival. An amazing line-up across three stages (red, green, and blue) on top of this year’s headliners, Feist, Grimes, and Vampire Weekend, helped the 3-day passes sell out in less than a month.
Make sure to check back in with us throughout the week for all of our Friday, Saturday, and Sunday recommendations. Until then, grab the full 3 day line-up along with details on how you can win a pair of tickets to this incredible festival, below.
