Lollapalooza:
Since first hitting the road in 1991, LOLLAPALOOZA established its legacy as the ultimate summer music festival, providing a traveling platform for groundbreaking acts such as JANE’S ADDICTION, RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS, PEARL JAM, NINE INCH NAILS, SOUNDGARDEN, SMASHING PUMPKINS, TOOL, ALICE IN CHAINS, BEASTIE BOYS, SNOOP DOGG and countless more. In addition, the festival embraced various art forms throughout its concourse section, creating the perfect intersection for art and music. In 2005, LOLLAPALOOZA was reborn as a destination festival, taking over Chicago's historic Grant Park for three days every summer and boasting over 130 acts in all genres. One of America’s most beloved music festivals continues to thrive in the Windy City every summer, getting bigger and better every year with acts such as RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE, RADIOHEAD and KANYE WEST. Last year’s gathering was headlined by LADY GAGA, SOUNDGARDEN and GREEN DAY.
Perry Farrell:
Perry Farrell is one of the most influential and original musical figures in recent history. Dubbed as the "Godfather of Alternative Rock,” Farrell fronts Jane's Addiction which formed in 1985. Creating a new genre and musical movement, Farrell and Jane's Addiction changed the music scene and paved the way for bands such as Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Alice in Chains, and STP. In 1993, Perry created Porno for Pyros, a daring evolution to his diversity and growth. As well as being a groundbreaking musician, he is the creator and founder of Lollapalooza. Launched in 1991, SPIN magazine listed Lollapalooza as the #1 tour that changed the world. Known for its musical diversity, Lollapalooza was instrumental in exposing alternative music formats to the masses and establishing a sense of commonality across a fragmented demographic. The first of its kind, Lollapalooza quickly established itself as a lifestyle festival, pushing the envelope and exposing concert goers to a subculture of 'alternative' living and art, and provided a platform for numerous environmental and human-rights causes as well. As a constant creative force, Farrell continues to push his own artistic horizon as a music producer, electronic music performer and visual artist, as well as a rock icon.
