The fun isn’t over just yet!
Get ready to close out the summer with a bang at the final Rock the Block concert happening tomorrow, August 14th!
It’s hard to believe that we’ve already reached the grand finale of our concert series, and we want to extend a heartfelt thank you to everyone who has joined us for the past three incredible events. The White Plains community has truly made these gatherings in the heart of our city something special.
Expect an unforgettable night filled with live music, dancing, outdoor dining, and incredible family-friendly activities! The block will be filled with mini-games such as badminton, ping-pong, and cornholes! Feeling crafty? As always, arts and crafts activities will be provided by the ArtsMobile.
For our last Rock the Block concert, we’ve got a groovy lineup featuring a blend of ’90s R&B, hip-hop, soul, and jazz.
Our fantastic lineup will feature BSKi and OTM (Olive Tree Madmen).
Known for his epic Stevie Wonder covers, our opener BSKi will feature a mix of R&B, Funk, & Hip-Hop with Afro-Latin rhythms.
Spending the night with us, our headliners OTM are a combination of a legendary ’90s R&B singer from Brooklyn, an Irish-born singer (whose band toured with The Who), Van Halen, Sheryl Crow (a trailblazing guitarist), and percussionist Craig “Butter” Glanville.
In our acoustic corner, enjoy the sounds of Karen Bella with Teddy Kumpel as they play genre-crossing original songs with classic influences.
We’ve seen your dance movies! From salsa to line dancing to straight vibing, you all know how to get your groove on!
For those who love to dance, we have an exciting new addition to the concert program! You can anticipate free dance lessons from Arthur Murray Dance Studios, where a dance instructor will be teaching ballroom swing dancing. So grab your dance partner, and we’ll see you there!
Don’t forget to spread the word and invite your friends and family for an evening of pure joy and entertainment. This is the event of the summer you can’t miss!
P.S. Keep an eye out.
