Here's the full 2015 Northside Festival concert lineup

Written by

Think of the procession of NYC summer-concerts announcements as the drawn-out ending of a poker game. In turn, each series or fest tips its hand (i.e., reveals its schedule), and local concert fiends collectively ooh and aah over the talent on offer. We already know what's up with SummerStage, Celebrate Brooklyn!, Governors Ball and a bunch of smaller players. And now, another ace card sharp, Northside Festival, reveals its holdings. And damn, if they haven't come out with the fest-lineup equivalent of a royal flush. "The highlights are too numerous to mention" is a well-worn cliché, but in this case it's actually true. Pour yourself a stiff cup of coffee and feast your eyes.
