"As the mecca of the popularly dubbed 'indie music scene,' New York City is home to a highly sophisticated and knowledgeable music audience that, year after year, turn out in mass on Pier 54 to support the acclaimed bands performing. This summer we will continue the pairing of great bands with great fans" said David Katz, Vice President of Marketing & Events at the Hudson River Park Trust.

In previous seasons, RiverRocks headliners have included The Antlers, Blonde Redhead, Brazilian Girls, Deerhunter, Matt & Kim, Phosphorescent, Ted Leo + Pharmacists, and Yeasayer, among others.
