Posted on by Leave a comment

Now that our friends back home at ArtsQuest have unveiled their full Levitt Pavilion SteelStacks lineup — check out the full season here, courtesy of our pal John Moser — it’s time for us to hit you with our official Sounds of the Underground lineup, coming to the iconic Bethlehem venue on Friday, June 21.

As previously mentioned, Sounds of the Underground (co-presented by our friends at Your Next Favorite Band) will feature eight eastern Pennsylvania-based performers across two stages. The evening kicks off at 7:30 p.m. with a Nashville-style songwriters round on Levitt Pavilion, where you will get to experience a variety of genres, from folk and Americana, to indie rock and hip hop. Our performers are…

  • Alex Radus (Folk/Singer-songwriter)
  • Bren (Indie/Alternative)
  • Chelsea Mitchell of Dirty Dollhouse (Alt-Americana)
  • Greg Adams of TIOGA (Rock)
  • Kuf Knotz & Christine Elise (Hip Hop/Alternative)
  • Tye Vallone & Brie Emsee of The Groove Merchants (Blues/Rock/Soul)

Then, we kick the evening into overdrive at 9 p.m., right across 1st St. on the Highmark Blue Shield Community Stage on the Air Products Town Square. There, we’ll be joined by high-powered, harmonic rock band The Beautiful Distortion, before closing the evening with Radus’ well-regarded alt-rock project, Hot4Robot.

Normally, this would be the part where we would link you to purchase tickets, but like the rest of this season’s Levitt Pavilion SteelStacks lineup, Sounds of the Underground is FREE, all-ages, and open to the public! Bring your lawn chair, grab a spot, and join us in Bethlehem on the first Friday of summer!

Two stages. Eight acts.

One EPIC first Friday of summer.

Underground Music Collective — that’s us! — will return to our homeland of Bethlehem, PA for a summertime party unlike any we’ve ever thrown.

We’ll once again team with our friends at Your Next Favorite Band at SteelStacks, as we present Sounds of the Underground: Songwriters of Eastern Pennsylvania. This special evening full of homegrown talent will take place on Friday, June 21 — the first Friday of summer — beginning at 7:30 p.m.

For this spectacular evening, we’ll be on not one, but both outdoor stages on the SteelStacks campus. The fun begins with a songwriter’s round on the Levitt Pavilion stage — in front of the iconic Bethlehem Steel blast furnaces — beginning at 7:30 p.m. From there, the party kicks into overdrive, with full band performances just across 1st St. on the Highmark Blue Shield Community Stage on the Air Products Town Square beginning at 9 p.m.

Full lineup details will be announced in the coming weeks. In the meantime, mark your calendars and make plans to celebrate the Summer Solstice with us back in the Christmas City!

Oh, and one more thing… it’s free to attend!
