The Big Gig is here, and while you can see hundreds of nationally touring acts in Milwaukee at Summerfest, the festival also provides some opportunities for local music to shine. Whether you’re looking for your next local favorite, or want to see the names you’ve heard on local radio in the city’s largest live capacity, there’s something for you this year. Make sure to check in with Shepherd Express every weekend of Summerfest to find out where Milwaukee’s music scene is playing on the grounds, and you can check out this week’s lineup below:
