The 1975’s second full-length album, “I like it when you sleep, for you are so beautiful yet so unaware of it,” topped the Billboard 200 chart in March of this year.

The group is know for hits including “Robbers,” “Chocolate” and “The Sound.”

Alt-pop duo Oh Wonder released its first album in September 2015. 070 Shake is a member of rap collective 070 and has released tracks including “Thru The Speakers,” “Make It There,” and “No Enemies.” She was also featured on Drake’s OVOSound Radio.

This marks the first Rock the Dome event since the concert’s inception in 2012. Due to scheduling conflicts, the event hasn’t appeared on the calendar since Ludacris and Rick Ross co-headlined in 2012.
