RUSSELL DICKERSON
RUSSELLMANIA
on The Stone Pony Summer Stage
with Niko Moon and Jake Scott

Russell Dickerson is known for his electrifying performances and “unstoppable energy fans can’t get enough of” (E! News). After bursting onto the scene, the Tennessee native quickly stood out from the pack as he released four consecutive career-starting singles that reached No. One on the Billboard Country Airplay chart. Since then, Dickerson has earned platinum or better status on singles including “Yours” (3X Platinum), “Blue Tacoma” (2X Platinum), “Every Little Thing” (Platinum), “Love You Like I Used To” (Platinum), and “She Likes It” ft. Jake Scott (2X Platinum). Just last year, he clocked his fifth No. One with “God Gave Me A Girl.” This year, he released “Good Day To Have A Great Day,” followed by his latest single “Bones,” which was the biggest radio debut of his career.

North 2 Shore presents
STREETLIGHT MANIFESTO
on The Stone Pony Summer Stage

Seven guys, seven different musical backgrounds, seven different personalities, one band, one unique and unmistakable voice. Formed in New Jersey as an ad hoc group intended to put out one album and disappear, one thing lead to another, and within a few months of their debut release, Everything Goes Numb, Streetlight Manifesto was officially a full time touring band, traveling the world, spreading their infectious and energetic tunes to all who would listen. A high energy rock band with more horn players than traditional rock instruments, with influences from latin, klezmer, folk, world, funk, jazz, and classical music all blending into one cohesive sound, the band has somehow come a long way from where they started while staying true to their DIY roots. Twenty years later, the guys are still at it, still performing live to sold-out shows filled with sweat-drenched fans, all dancing and singing along at the top of their lungs.

DISPATCH
John Butler
G. Love & Special Sauce
Donavon Frankenreiter

Formed by Chadwick Stokes and Brad Corrigan while in college in Vermont DISPATCH have
forged their own path outside the mainstream music industry as one of the most successful
artists in the roots rock scene. Over the course of a slew of acclaimed studio and live albums
and countless tours and festivals, the band has gone on to become one of biggest success
stories in independent music history, selling out three nights at Madison Square Garden and
drawing over 100,000 fans to a massive outdoor show in their adopted hometown of Boston
without any traditional radio or major label support.
This year, they will embark on a US Summer Tour alongside John Butler (with band). DISPATCH
and John Butler will also be joined by G. Love & Special Sauce, Donavon Frankenreiter, and
Illiterate Light on select dates.
Throughout their rise, DISPATCH has taken every opportunity to use their success for good,
launching charitable organizations to fight inequality and mass incarceration, raising funds and
awareness for environmental causes, schools and hospitals on the road, and even traveling as
far afield as Zimbabwe to work with children and communities in need. Chadwick Stokes’ Calling
All Crows joins bands and fans together in collective activism that has raised more than half a
million dollars for feminist movements, while Brad Corrigan’s Love Light + Melody helps amplify
the stories of children who live in extreme poverty.

FLIPTURN
THE BURNOUT DAYS TOUR
with Joe P
on The Stone Pony Summer Stage

For flipturn, success didn’t arrive overnight. The band, comprised of Dillon Basse (lead vocals, guitar), Tristan Duncan (lead guitar), Mitch Fountain (synth, guitar), Madeline Jarman (bass), and Devon VonBalson (drums), grew steadily with every gig, from college house shows in their home state of Florida to festival appearances at Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza, and Austin City Limits, to national recognition from Jimmy Kimmel Live, ABC News, and The Washington Post – earning the Jacksonville-based band an international reputation as an indie rock powerhouse. By the time flipturn released their debut album, Shadowglow, they’d become genuine road warriors while still in their mid-20s, supporting the record with a nonstop string of tour dates. That dizzying experience inspired the band’s second release, Burnout Days. Caught halfway between 21st century indie rock, New Wave-inspired nostalgia, and rhythmic alt-pop, Burnout Days finds the beauty that exists between five friends, even in times of burnout.

The Head and the Heart
Aperture Tour
on The Stone Pony Summer Stage
with Wilderado and Marfa

As The Head and the Heart toured behind their 2022 album, Every Shade of Blue, Jonathan Russell realized something needed to change inside the band he had cofounded a dozen years earlier: the entire songwriting process. Sure, they’d had Platinum singles, including “Honeybee” and “All We Ever Knew,” but the tandem of success and encroaching adulthood had forced sometimes-unspoken changes over the years. Russell, for instance, often took on lead songwriting duties, even bringing in outside collaborators to bolster his ideas. Their early band energy faded a bit, a slight disconnect forming between the songs and the members, even between one another.

Aperture, The Head and the Heart’s sixth album, is the affirming sound of their restart. After leading so much of the songwriting during the last decade, Russell ceded that role to everyone, shooing away siloed work for a highly collaborative approach where everyone hatched tunes together in a room or passed ideas between coasts. With every song fortified by the sense of beginning again, Aperture is The Head and the Heart’s most vital and poignant album. It is the best work they’ve ever done.

Really, all of Aperture sounds like the work of a band reaching unimagined levels of camaraderie and mutual risk as one, at once. A spirited homage to honesty and love, “Jubilee” is like the sun suddenly bursting from the clouds. It bounces like a piece of pop-punk and arcs like a Springsteen classic. During “Beg Steal Borrow,” The Head and The Heart’s trademark harmonies conjure communal aspirations. And there may be no better summary of this fellow feeling than the mighty “Arrow,” a shout-along song about sometimes needing the space to roam and fail on your own and sometimes needing to be guided and helped by those around you. The Head and The Heart has finally found a way for its six members to find their own ideas and then build them, together, into something magnificent.

Yacht Rock Revue – Yacht Rock Forever Tour Presented by CANN

Yacht Rock Revue, hailed by Rolling Stone as the “world’s premier soft-rock party band,” invites listeners on a nostalgic voyage through the sun-soaked melodies of the ‘70s and ‘80s. Based in Atlanta, GA, this dynamic ensemble blends impeccable musicianship with a deep reverence for the yacht rock genre. Sarah Bahr of The New York Times reported her firsthand experience of the band’s liberating energy, observing fans who “danced for two hours to tunes from the 1970s and ’80s,” while Entertainment Weekly noted that “the shows tend to be unabashedly joyous affairs.” Since their humble beginnings in 2007, Yacht Rock Revue has emerged as a pivotal figure in revitalizing yacht rock, sharing stages with icons and garnering a devoted following of “Anchorheads.” Whether performing in intimate venues or rocking arenas, their concerts promise an immersive musical journey that celebrates the timeless allure of smooth grooves.

Gates open at 7 pm, show at 8 pm

Tickets: $35 & up in advance (plus applicable surcharges), $50 at the gate

The Menzingers
on The Stone Pony Summer Stage

At this point, the Menzingers are an absolute institution. The Philadelphia punk legends’ multi-decade reputation as road warriors with an unbeatable catalog is cemented as hard truth—and their seventh album, Some Of It Was True, stands as their most immediate-sounding and energetic record to date. The follow-up to 2019’s sensational Hello Exile accomplishes the daunting task of capturing the Menzingers’ distinctive live energy in the confines of the studio, resulting in a sound that’s both rich, raw, and complementary to the group’s increasingly prismatic songwriting approach. More than 15 years in, the Menzingers are still holding their listeners square in the immediate present.
