NEAR WEST SIDE — Rounding out a crew of eclectic headliners, organizers announced the full North Coast Music Festival lineup Wednesday. 

Jam band Umphrey's McGee, brotherly duo The Floozies and indie dance duo Matt & Kim will rock the seventh annual fest Labor Day weekend at Union Park, fest officials confirmed Wednesday. The Umphrey's McGee set will mark the third time the band has played North Coast and will be the band's first show in Chicago in more than two years. 

Other newly-announced acts include trap artists Baauer and Brillz, house legend Sam Feldt, electronic powerhouse The Polish Ambassador, jam band Tauk and Twiddle, indie dance duo Hotel Garuda, Dirtybird's Justin Jay, Australian duo Hermitude and others. 

Earlier this spring, North Coast announced electronic artists Bassnectar, ZEDD and ODESZA would headline the fest alongside Juicy J, Ty Dolla $ign, GROUPLOVE, Sleigh Bells and Action Bronson. The fest's full lineup is online. 

Three-day general admission tickets for the fest Sept. 2-4 are currently on sale for $180.

At a neighborhood meeting earlier this month, North Coast promoters announced plans to hire on-duty police officers and add a neighborhood hotline this year. 

The festival is presented by React Presents, Silver Wrapper, Cold Grums Productions and Metronome Chicago.
