We may only be a month away, but there's still time to discover new bands from the lineup! I got this idea from the Coachella booklet. It's a pretty simply concept. Recommend a less popular band for fans of a more well-known one.
I figure we should try to keep it mostly within bands who are playing, at least on the recommendation side of things. For example, if you like The Black Keys, then you'll love Gary Clark Jr.!

If you like James Brown or Prince you will like Darondo. Yes it is a bold statement. Still true, he really only has one song that sounds like Prince but he only has like 10-12 songs
I can see the Deerhunter comparison, dunno about the other two (maybe talking heads just a tad). I would say Deerhunter mixed with a Paul Simon-ish vocal style.
-When I Hear My Name -Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground -Blue Orchid -Passive Manipulation -Red Rain -Death Letter -My Doorbell -Hotel Yorba -Same Boy You've Always Known -Lovesick -Little Ghost -We're Going to Be Friends -The Hardest Button to Button -Black Math -The Nurse -I Just Don't Know What to Do With Myself
Encore: -Ball and Biscuit -Seven Nation Army -Screwdriver
For me, what makes Here We Go Magic so appealing is that no song on each album is like the song it precedes... also the extent of the experimental aspects they take with each song on the album is what reminds me of those three other bands I mentioned.
