“Free rock music in a circus tent — need we say more? Spanning two evenings, this event features two concerts. The first night is free and showcases local favorites Japanather, the So So Glos, and Electric Tickle Machine, as well as Seattle retro-rockers the Pharmacy and LA's Voxhaul Broadcast. Night two requires ticket purchase because, in addition to sets by neo-psychedelic rockers Amazing Baby, Saint Motel, and Aska — who scored Spike Jonze's short I'm Here — you also get a performance by the Big Apple Circus. So we encourage you to step right up. If the concept was cool enough for the Rolling Stones in the '60s, it's cool enough for us.”

Picking up where the best of 1968’s legendary rock superstars left off, the all-new ROCK & ROLL CIRCUS is a cutting-edge marriage of the best of circus spectacle with today’s top musicians, creating a multisensory, explosive experience unlike any other live event available today. One of the longest running and top cruelty-free circuses, Big Apple Circus, recently featured in PBS’ “Circus” documentary, will be hosting the event at Lincoln Center in the 40,000 square foot tents (used previously by New York Fashion Week). The spectacle is a rare event that brings unity to the progressive music community.
