Pitchfork has announced Haim, Robyn and The Isley Brothers 60th anniversary celebration as headliners for its 2019 music festival. The 14th annual Pitchfork Music Festival will return to Chicago’s Union Park July 19-21.
Also joining the lineup are Belle & Sebastian, Charli XCX, Earl Sweatshirt, Stereolab for their first North American show in a decade and soul legend Mavis Staples.
“This summer’s Festival will be my first as editor,” said Pitchfork editor-in-chief Puja Patel in a release. “It’s exciting that it also features such an inclusive lineup. More than half the artists performing are women, including modern pioneers of indie rock and hip-hop, legends of soul and R&B, and a headlining set by the dance-pop icon Robyn. For a national festival that’s so important to a larger music community, the scope of this year’s booking feels especially meaningful.”
