Wilco started Solid Sound back in 2010, and has been running it biennially since 2011. Past lineups have included comedians (Kristen Schaal, John Mulaney), performance groups (Circus Smirkus, Story Pirates), and a diverse array of musicians. Last year’s iteration featured Kurt Vile, Big Thief, and Kevin Morby. Wilco, who have performed every year since the festival’s inception, will headline, but the rest of the lineup remains unannounced.
