These three titanic acts will grace the Grant Park stage from July 28 to 31, celebrating the grand anniversary with an added fourth day of festivities. Per the outlet’s source, Lana del Rey and J. Cole are also expected to perform. Radiohead is storming back onto the scene after a period of laying low.
