Wavefront Music Festival announces its third and final wave of lineup additions

Wavefront Music Festival has finally announced its third and final wave of artist additions, choosing to reveal them in a short fifty second clip. Rony Seikaly, Sander Kleinenberg, Shreddie Mercury and more officially join the likes of Diplo, Nicolas Jaar, Fatboy Slim, and Hot Natured on the 100+ DJ strong lineup. Whether you want to get weird with Nico, express yourself for Diplo, watch a barefoot Fatboy Slim dance, or see former N.B.A. player Rony Seikaly dominate a different kind of court, you’ll have your pick. In addition to the third wave, the festival organizers have also announced a local wave featuring, as the title implies, local Chicago talent.

Tickets for the festival are still on sale and can be purchased via Wantickets. Click below the jump to see a text version of both the third and local wave announcements.
