HOBOKEN AND BEYOND — Eat your hearts out, other New Jersey towns. Hoboken is going to have three high-profile names in one concert this summer outside on the piers facing the New York skyline – Bob Dylan, Wilco, and My Morning Jacket.
The three will perform at Hoboken’s Pier A Park on Friday, July 26, 2013 as part of the AmericanaramA Festival of Music tour.
“After last year’s Mumford & Sons concert on Pier A, we received countless requests from our community for more similar events,” said Mayor Dawn Zimmer. “We’re excited to bring world-renowned talent to Hoboken to provide great entertainment options for our community in our own back yard and to support our local businesses.”
Additional details, including ticket information, will be announced shortly.
The show is being organized by Bowery Presents, the same promoters that brought Mumford & Sons to Hoboken last year to kick off the tour for their latest album, which won the Grammy for Album of the Year.
