Suburbia to bring up-and-coming artists to North Texas this weekend

Friday and Saturday will debut a music festival in North Texas that has high hopes of becoming a returning show –– much like the artists in the lineup.

Live Nation aims to bring a large-scale music festival to the area in the hopes that North Texas will listen attentively to the artists Suburbia will feature.

Some artists automatically stand out in the schedule, while some may require a listen for that “oh yeah, I know who this is” moment, and of course, some artists that may not have been heard by the masses quite yet. A variation of talent is the name of the game here, and emerging talent will take the stage this weekend at Plano’s Oak Point Park and Nature Reserve.

Austin-based, emerging bluegrass singer Shakey Graves, Houston native and genre-defying love song singer Hayes Carll and Dallas’ own soul singer Larry g[EE] are some of the Texas musicians in the lineup.

Overall, Suburbia will showcase Texas talent alongside names that have already been heard around the world. David Guetta, Tegan and Sara and Third Eye Blind are some of the established names that will also be in Plano this weekend.

Whatever music-goers are coming out for, and whomever they may want to see, it’s safe to say that there will be something for everyone willing to lend an ear.
