Lollapalooza, the music festival created by Jane’s Addiction’s Perry Farrell, will be the subject of a three-part docuseries on Paramount+. The streamer has ordered Lolla: The Story of Lollapalooza…
to be directed by Michael John Warren, director of HBO’s Spring Awakening and Nicki Minaj doc My Time Again.
The festival subsequently featured bands including Pearl Jam, The Jesus and Mary Chain, Dinosaur Jr., The Jesus Lizard, Sonic Youth and Hole before becoming a standalone festival in Chicago with some international spinoffs. It is exec produced by Bruce Gillmer and Amanda Culkowski for MTV Entertainment Studios and James Lee Hernandez and Brian Lazarte for FunMeter. Michael John Warren, Mat Whittington, Daniel Gibbs and Brian Levy will also executive produce; Matt Kaye and Jordan Bogdonavage are co-executive producers.
Farrell said, “When Lolla was launched in 1991, the concert industry felt like a boring car ride that was running out gas. We pumped new life into the live music experience and set the foundation for the youth’s counter culture to become important and exciting again. Now more than three decades young, I am happy to have this opportunity to give people an inside look at the festival’s contribution to music history.
