McDowell Mountain Music Festival has released their 2015 lineup with a decidedly  more diverse array acts to perform in Phoenix March 27-29. The four headliners who top the bill could not be more disparate.

We’ve got Wide Spread Panic’s brand country classic rock, Passion Pit’s bubbly electropop, Thievery Corporation’s jazzy trip-hop, and Phantogram’s droning electronica filling out the top billings this year. MMMF has been known for it’s eclectic lineups in the past but this year it appears festival organizers to have embraced it’s reputation as a smorgasbord  of different tastes. To keep things straight for our readers I have broken down the lineup into genres. There may be some overlap in these groups so please don’t crucify me in the comment section (I get it; Portugal, the Man released an electronic album in 2007)

Portugal. the Man
