Wicker Park Fest is celebrating 19 years with more than 60 bands across three stages. The annual event will showcase the talents of both marquee performers and local artists looking to get their names out there.
“My day-to-day self is chill, laid back, fun, but on stage, I unleash,” Landry said. “When I’m rapping, once the music starts and I’m right there, it’s like there’s no turning back.”
“What I want to channel on stage is to show that I’m a strong woman, but also not allowing what you see to be like, ‘This is what she is,’” Landry said. “There’s no filter or limitations.” “It’s important to have an outlet for artists to play a festival before they play Lolla one day,” Ugolini said. “Artists need outlets, and we’re honored to provide it.”
