25
3:00 pm

We are excited to announce that we will be playing a daytime set as part of this fall’s DUMBO Arts Festival. During the weekend of September 24th-26th DUMBO is taken over by live music, dance, street art, gallery openings, amazing food and pedestrian streets.

On Saturday, September 25th, the Strung Out String Band will be playing from 3pm to 4pm on Jan Bell‘s Curated Stage where we will be sharing the bill with a number of amazing bands playing all types of Americana inside the historic Tobacco Warehouse which is part of Empire-Fulton Ferry State Park.

We recommend spending the morning walking the streets and spending your afternoon listening to amazing music while gazing at the Manhattan skyline over the East River.

Oh, lest we forget, everything is Free.
