Barcelona's Sonar Festival has laid plans for a Chicago event on September 9th - 11th, with the intention to make it an annual festival. Sonar has done festivals in Sau Paulo, London and Tokyo (among others), and this will follow the first U.S.-based Sonar evens in New York and Washington last year.

Sonar organizers are calling the Chicago happening a "multidisciplinary line-up with an experimental slant," so it seems like it will live up to its established street cred.

The Sónar Chicago Festival has named its line up!
