Discovery Meadow comes alive with music this weekend with three free concerts—all part of the larger citywide celebration surrounding the College Football Playoff National Championship.

The AT&T Playoff Playlist Live concert series runs Friday through Sunday nights, Jan. 4-6, and features a star-studded lineup of bands and solo artists.

Kicking things off on Friday night, Alessia Cara, Alex Aiono and Brynn Elliott are scheduled to take the stage.

The 22-year-old Canadian singer and songwriter Cara first made waves with her breakout single, “Here.” The song—an introvert’s anthem, which recalls the dark piano textures of Fiona Apple’s “Criminal”—is a smoky and soulful shout-out to all the wallflowers at the party. Those who don’t know the track may recognize Cara from her collaboration with Logic. She was featured, along with Khalid, on Logic’s 2017 hit, “1-800-273-8255.”

Speaking of Logic, the Los Angeles-based rapper is also in town for the concert series. Logic headlines the second evening of music—joining retro R&B revivalist Leon Bridges and Kendrick Lamar collaborator and labelmate Jay Rock on Saturday.

Bridges is currently on tour behind his acclaimed sophomore album, Good Thing, which has drawn praise for its savvy blend of retro R&B tones and modern storytelling. Jay Rock, who’s verse on Kendrick Lamar’s “Money Trees” earned him a Grammy nod as a featured artist, released his second studio album, Redemption, this summer. The record features two singles currently in rotation on hip-hop radio—the Lamar-featuring “Win” and the Jeremih-featuring “Tap Out.”

OneRepublic, The Regrettes and Ellie Goulding close out the three-night run of shows on Sunday.

Perhaps best known for their massive 2007 single, “Apologize,” OneRepublic have also collaborated with Logic. Earlier this year, the Colorado-bred band released “Start Again,” which features the rapper. The song is also on the soundtrack of the Netflix original drama, 13 Reasons Why.

The Regrettes, a punky female-fronted trio from L.A. have been garnering plenty of favorable press from their hometown papers, the Los Angeles Times and the LA Weekly, as well as from national outlets, like Rolling Stone.

Goulding, who has three certified platinum albums to her name, comes to town on the heels of her latest single—an infectious collaboration with Diplo and Swae Lee of Rae Sremmurd.

Monday night is typically the deadest night of the week for night clubs, yet DJ Casp3R has managed to build a loyal following over the past three years with his Monday Night ReToXx dance parties, originally at the Cardiff Lounge in Campbell, now at Johnny V’s in downtown San Jose.

He also hosts TH3RMAL on Thursdays with ViLLAN at Fahrenheit. Here are his his favorite dance tracks of 2013:

The Bangerz – “Stars”
By far, one of my favorite high-energy rager tracks of the year. It’s catchy, melodic and just an explosion of energy after the buildup. Personally, I’m a big fan of songs that can change into a down-tempo beat and then bring the energy right back up seamlessly, and this one has that in spades. The whole album is fantastic, and I really can’t wait to see the live show in Vegas.
