Daft Punk
WHEN: Friday, August 3: AT&T Stage. 8:30pm - 10 pm.
WHO: This is the first Lollapalooza appearance for the French electronica duo, but Parisian pair Thomas Bangalter and Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo should have no problem moving feet with their brand of robot rock. It's been a while since the band has played live, so it's a welcome return for a group whose recent O2 Wireless Festival appearance was described by Yahoo! Music as "quite simply the most awe-inspiring stage production ever."
ESSENTIAL MUSIC: "One More Time" from the group's 2001 sophomore effort "Discovery" became ubiquitous in the club scene, while "Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger" from the same album became a cult hit and serves as the main sample for Kanye West's latest single, "Stronger."
