Billie Eilish, 3:35 PM – 4:25 PM Just try to catch electro-pop sensation Billie Eilish (QRO photos at a festival), who’s turned a lot of heads and hips with her recent single “Ocean Eyes” and EP Don’t Smile at Me. Just watch out for her hoards of screaming female fans (QRO photos).

Sutro Stage Mac DeMarco, 8:00 PM – 9:10 PM Some artists toil in obscurity for years, even decades, but Mac DeMarco (QRO photos at a festival) hit success when he was barely old enough to drink (and loves to party, even on stage – QRO photos). His latest, This Old Dog, came out earlier this year, and it & a reputation for wild live shows (QRO photos at a festival) back to Outside Lands (QRO photos at a festival).
The Growlers, 6:40 PM – 7:30 PM From Dana Point in California, The Growlers (QRO photos at a festival) mix major effects with sixties psychedelic rock to make ‘Beach Goth’, as they come back to Outside Lands.

Margo Price, 2:45 PM – 3:30 PM The Fader once called Margo Price (QRO photos at a festival) “country’s next star,” and she’s increasingly becoming it. There’s not a better place to find that out than at Outside Lands, which she comes to after last year’s big and powerful All American Made.
Dermot Kennedy, 1:30 PM – 2:15 PM Catch the soul-bearing beauty of the impressive new Dermot Kennedy.
Nick Mulvey, 12:15 PM – 1:00 PM Originally one-quarter of Mercury Prize-nominated Portico Quartet, Nick Mulvey (QRO photos at an English festival) has since fashioned a career all his own (QRO photos).
Twin Peaks Stage Beck, 8:40 PM – 9:55 PM Beck (QRO photos at a festival) is back! Your favorite musical non-conformist (QRO photos at a festival) broke through in the mid-nineties thanks to songs like “Loser”, “Where It’s At”, and “Devil’s Haircut” off of early records Mellow Gold and Odelay (QRO deluxe edition review), mixing white boy funk with indie-rock and experimental – as well also delivering a stripped, soulful folk side to boot. After full-lengths 2008’s Modern Guilt (QRO review) and 2006’s The Information (QRO review), he took off time to work as a producer (such as on Thurston Moore’s Demolished Thoughts – QRO review – and Stephen Malkmus & The Jicks’ Mirror Traffic – QRO review), only releasing a few soundtrack tracks (like writing for the fictional band Sex Bob-omb in Scott Pilgrim vs. The World – QRO soundtrack review) and a ‘song reader’. But he finally delivered a new studio album in 2014 with Morning Phase (QRO review) – and of course it was great. A perfect headliner for this third time at Outside Lands (QRO headlining a festival), he comes after last fall’s release of Colors (QRO review), with his entire impressive career in tow (QRO live review).
Father John Misty, 6:50 PM – 7:50 PM While a member of overrated folk outfit Fleet Foxes, guitarist Joshua Tillman found time to do his own solo stuff (QRO album review), but in 2012 he moved to solo full-time as Father John Misty (QRO photos) with Fear Fun, and he comes back to Outside Lands (QRO photos at a festival) behind last year’s Pure Comedy (QRO review). As Aziz Ansari said in Master of None (before his more recent issues), “That’s a hot ticket!”
Carly Rae Jepsen, 5:15 PM – 6:05 PM Three words: “Call Me Maybe”. With that song, the third-place finisher of the 2007 season of Canadian Idol (the version where even the Simon Cowell clone is polite) reached massive fame, with what became the best-selling single worldwide in 2012. Carly Rae Jepsen is still a pop star, but one of those alt-Canadian ones – the kind who’d play Outside Lands (QRO photos at a festival).
Perfume Genius, 3:40 PM – 4:30 PM Seattle’s chamber-pop artist Mike Hadreas (QRO photos) comes to Outside Lands as Perfume Genius (QRO photos at a festival).
The Mountain Goats, 2:05 PM – 2:55 PM John Darnielle has been a prolific producer for over two decades now under The Mountain Goats (QRO photos) moniker, including 2008’s Heretic Pride (QRO review) 2009’s pseudo-biblically-inspired The Life of the World To Come (QRO review), 2011’s All Eternals Deck, 2012’s Transcendental Youth, 2015’s Beat the Champ, and last year’s Goths.
