  1. Metallica

If you’re a heavy metal fan, Metallica is the act to check out at Outside Lands. The band got its start in the 1980s, but it’s still rocking out on tour more than 30 years later.

  1. Young the Giant

Young the Giant is an indie rock band that is up-and-coming on the music scene. You’ll be sure to hear songs from their most recent album, Home of the Strange, many of which simply make you want to dance. If you’re not entirely familiar with Young the Giant, you’ve probably heard some of their most popular songs, including “Cough Syrup” and “My Body,” that have gotten the band to where it is today.

  1. Tove Lo

Tove Lo took the music world by storm with her hit “Habits (Stay High),” and she is preparing to take Outside Lands by storm, too. You’re sure to hear her other top tracks as well, including “Cool Girl” and “Talking Body.” So if you’re ready to sing at the top of your lungs and take a break from rock and roll, Tove Lo is definitely the one to see.
