Local Acts Ric Wilson, Lala Lala Make Their Pitchfork Debuts


This weekend is the 14th annual Pitchfork Music Festival – a homegrown stage for adventurous music from around the world, including Chicago. Nearly 50 acts will play over three days, including soul great Mavis Staples, the electronic band Stereolab, and Swedish dancefloor icon Robyn.

We visited a pair of young local artists as they prepared for their Pitchfork debut.
