## Resource

John Summit is headlining Lollapalooza this July — a dream come true for the Chicago native who got his electronic music start after seeing deadmau5 perform there in 2011. Sharing the stage with Lorde, Charli XCX, and The Smashing Pumpkins, Summit reflects on the uphill battle dance artists face for mainstream recognition, even as pop fans still don’t know who he is. He’s proud of his dance music roots, noting he hasn’t cracked the Billboard Hot 100 — a benchmark he sees differently. After wrapping his North American arena tour, he’s taking a major break from the U.S. stage, dialing back Vegas gigs to recharge. This Lollapalooza moment is more than just a headline — it’s a full-circle triumph for the artist who turned a childhood concert into a career.
