welcome to Millennium Park
Millennium Park has garnered attention all over the world as one of Chicago’s
greatest jewels. From the impressive Frank Gehry designed Jay Pritzker Pavilion to
the artistic wonders that include Cloud Gate, aectionately known as “the Bean,”
the Park is a year round attraction. But never more so than in the summer, when
free musical entertainment, family-friendly activities and tours oer non-stop
enjoyment.
This summer a new exhibit lls the Boeing Galleries, featuring monumental ceramic
sculptures by artist Jun Kaneko. A new summer lm series will screen at the Pritzker
Pavilion, and opening nights of both the Chicago Blues Festival and Chicago Gospel
Music Festival will take place there. Additionally, for the rst time ever, the Chicago
Jazz Festival will be held in Millennium Park, featuring four stages of music.
Returning this summer are the city’s free concert series in the Park: Downtown
Sound, Loops and Variations and Made in Chicago: World Class Jazz. Visitors and
residents will continue to enjoy a great summer tradition, the Grant Park MusicFestival, and kids of all ages can have fun all summer long at the Family Fun Festival.
On behalf of the City of Chicago, I encourage you to plan a visit to Millennium Park
this summer. You won’t want to miss it.
Sincerely,
Rahm EmanuelMayor

Marc Ribot’sCeramic Dog
Lee Ranaldo Band + Marc Ribot’s Ceramic Dog • MAY 27While he’s best known for being a co-founder and three-decades-long memberof Sonic Youth, it’s Lee Ranaldo’s guitar skills, ranked No. 1 by Spin Magazine,that will highlight his performance on the Jay Pritzker Pavilion stage. Joining himare Sonic Youth band mate Steve Shelley, Alan Licht and Tim Luntzel. Last year,Ranaldo released his rst fully self-penned album demonstrating both his electricand acoustic skills. Opening this evening and performing from their latest album, YourTurn, is Marc Ribot’s Ceramic Dog.
Sharon Van Etten + Speck Mountain • JUNE 3In just a few short years and only thr ee albums, New Jersey born and raised singer-songwriter Sharon Van Etten has established her vision and voice. She’s performedat the Hollywood Bowl, Radio Music Hall and the Pitchfork Music Festival, andnow adds the Pritzker Pavilion to her resume. The Chicago-based, psychedelicrock band Speck Mountain opens the show.
An Evening with Glen Hansard feat. Lisa Hanniganand members of The Frames • JUNE 10Glen Hansard’s rst ever solo album, Rhythm and Repose, has achieved great criticalsuccess.

Joining them
is Irish singer and musician Lisa Hannigan.
Daniel Lanois + Brokeback • JUNE 17A celebrated producer for artists such as Bob Dylan, Emmylou Harris, Peter Gabriel andU2’s The Joshua Tree, Daniel Lanois also has a large catalog of his o wn albums, rstrecording in 1989.

Chicago and Thrill Jockey recording artists Brokeback are the opening act.
Carolina Chocolate Drops + Angela James • JUNE 24The Grammy® Award winning Carolina Chocolate Drops certainly demonstratethe inuence of their regional Piedmont background with ddle and banjo-basedmusic, but to merely call the group bluegrass would ignore the band’s constantevolution as members seek to highlight the central roleAfrican-Americans have played in shaping our nation’spopular music. Opening this evening is classic
country music artist and transplantedChicagoan, Angela James.
Carolina Chocolate Drops
Downtown Sound is co-curated by the Department of Cultural Aairsand Special Events and Mike Reed of At Pluto Limited.

FatoumataDiawara
Lee Fields & the Expressions + Theo Hu &the Platinum Band • JU LY 1Lee Fields is on his fth decade of making soul music.

Dawes + The Cairo Gang • JULY 8
North Carolina is fruitful ground for Los Angeles-based Dawes as the band just recorded itsthird album there, the recently released Stories Don’t End.

Dawes features Wylie Gelber on bass and Taylor’sbrother Grin on drums. Chicago Rock ‘n Roll band, The Cairo Gang, opens the show.
Fatoumata Diawara + Alasdair Roberts and Friends • JU LY 15Fatoumata Diawara’s debut album, Fatou, is almost entirely her own work: self-composedand arranged, with her own backing vocals and percussion. The artist, raised in Malibut now based in Paris, creates her own sound with a distinctly African spin. Inspired byWassoulou tradition, jazz and blues, Diawara has overcome cultural prejudice faced bywomen to make her own music that is well-received by giants in the industry. Opening thestage this evening is Irish Folk group and Drag City Recording artists Alasdair Roberts andFriends.
The Handsome Family + AZITA • JU LY 22The Handsome Family is actually the husband and wife songwriting team of Brett andRennie Sparks who have been collaborating for 20 years. Their latest release is TheHandsome Family’s Wilderness which intertwines the wonders of nature with unusualmoments in history. Their music invokes Appalachian holler, psychedelicrock, Tin Pan Alley and medieval ballads. Chicago’s piano songstress andmulti-instrumentalist AZITA opens for the band.
Dessa + Psalm One • JU LY 29Dessa is still a rapper and poet, but her new album, Parts ofSpeech, scheduled for a late June release, reveals an elegantsinger with a multi-platform vo ice. The recording involvesmultiple narratives of love, loss, connections and communion.Hearing it performed live will be a real treat. Chicago’s ownunderground hip-hop artist Psalm One opens the show.
