Chicago’s North Coast Fest, which debuted last year over Labor Day Weekend, will returned again in 2011 for the second edition of the end of summer festival. Last year’s 3 day festival was a big success featuring acts such as De La Soul, Jay Electronica, Mayer Hawthorne, and many others. Today the festival organizers announced the first 6 acts, with more to come soon. Artists on tap thus far include Wiz Khalifa, Lotus, Little Dragon, Neon Indian, Common, and Thievery Corporation.
The festival will take place in Chicago’s Union Park September 2nd to 4th and more info can be found over the North Coast Fest official homepage.
