Pop-A-Licious
The first Power Pop-A-Licious Music Festival will take place on Saturday April 30 & Sunday May 1 at the legendary rock club Asbury Lanes in Asbury Park, NJ. Conceived and curated by power pop legend Paul Collins (cofounder of The Nerves, The Breakaways and The Beat) the fest will bring together some of the finest young guitar-driven power pop, garage rock and punk-pop bands from across the U.S. and Canada.

Each day will feature bands from different regions of the country, with local DJs spinning sets to create an all-day dance party atmosphere. DJs, performance artist’s video projections, and, of course, the spirited, high-energy live rock-n-roll performances from all these great new bands will provide the entertainment. Tickets for the fest will be $15 for Saturday and $10 for Sunday, and will be available to purchase online through TicketWeb.
