Friday headliners include J. Cole, the Grammy-winning artist regarded as one of the most influential rappers of his generation, and The Chicks, a country band led by singer Natalie Maines who’ve been recording since 1989. Their most recent tour was in 2017, so you don’t want to miss the chance to see them this summer! Illenium completes Friday’s headliners with his mesmerizing blend of bass, dubstep, trap, and electronic rock.
