Two revealed so far are definitely more, shall we say, "high brow" than expected. Curious as to how this goes over with the 16-25 crowd.

Seriously though, how can you not know Erika Badu?

It did some out in 1997, so he could just be younger

I'm 24. Between this and Tool believe me it's been a banner year for questioning why I don't know certain big time acts.

I was born in '86.. Who the hell are "The Beatles?!"

Badu isn't exactly as well known as those guys though.

Baduizm, her debut, is still considered her best. But she only has 6 albums (one of which is technically a "mixtape") and they're all worth a listen imo

I'm kidding of course. But considering this is pretty much a music board, she seems like one of the essentials

I work at the studio where she recorded Baduizm. Sometimes we go through the archives and listen to the individual tracks, she's a truly incredible artist.

Probably 90% the redditer is BS'ing - but Arcade Fire should be stateside by then with the album releasing so I guess it's possible.

I would love it because it would also probably mean they would do some kind of cool small show at Rough Trade or Knitting Factory like when Reflektor came out.

Also - new Grizzly Bear single today - that would be a great get for this.

After hearing their new songs, really hope Haim shows up on the lineup.

Didn't realize this Kaaboo festival is the same weekend. Actually hoping for no crossover. www.kaaboodelmar.com/lineups?1_route=/client-embeds/kaaboo-2017/1/1/__/
