The Pitchfork Music Festival once again returns to Chicago's Union Park July 15-17, and we're thrilled to reveal some of the more than 40 artists who will perform on this year's eclectic bill. Among the acts who will appear: Animal Collective, Fleet Foxes, TV on the Radio, Cut Copy, the Dismemberment Plan, Deerhunter, Destroyer, Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti, James Blake, and OFWGKTA (Odd Future Wolf Gang Kill Them All), Das Racist, Kylesa, Curren$y, Woods, Yuck, and Sun Airway. Many more will be announced soon.
Tickets for the festival go on sale today, March 4, at 12 p.m. CST at the festival website. Single-day tickets cost $45, and three-day passes will run you $110. Last year, three-day passes sold out in five days, so don't put it off. In addition to three stages of artists, the festival will feature 50 individual vendors, as well as specialty fairs. The fest not only supports local businesses and the local economy, but also promotes the Chicago arts community as a whole.
Below, check out the list of artists so far, broken down by day.

Shits almost getting as expensive as Lolla, but not a bad lineup so far.
