Unveiling the lineup for the June 1-3 festival, Governors Ball said the two would launch a new act called Silk City, the name likely an allusion to a Philadelphia club where Diplo used to play. Diplo has also become a major live attraction with his groups Major Lazer and Jack U, the latter a collaboration with another electronic producer, Skrillex. Also on the Governors Ball line-up will be garage rocker Jack White, rapper Travis Scott, Pharrell Williams' hip-hop project N.E.R.D. and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, one of the key acts of New York's indie rock scene in the 2000s. Coachella's promoters since 2016 have run their own festival, Panorama, later in the summer on the same site as Governors Ball.
