Los Angeles has Coachella. Chicago has Lollapalooza. Yet somehow New York, home to the original music festival – Woodstock – lacks a modern large-scale festival. But that could soon change, as The Governor’s Ball looks poised to fill that role. After a modest artist roster playing the event over the past two years, organizers have just released the massive lineup for the 2013 festival, which is topped by Kanye West and Kings of Leon, with a third headliner still to be announced. The festival also promises a solid undercard lineup including Kendrick Lamar, Cut Copy, Miguel, Alt-J, and Japandroids just to name a few. The 3-day event takes place on June 7, 8, and 9 on Randall’s Island, and tickets go on sale Friday, January 25 at 12:00 PM here.
